Where? Oslo, Norway
Recommended by: Leisha Camden
Leisha said: "It's the best bookstore in Oslo- in all of Norway, in fact, I would venture. One of the few independent bookstores left in the city. They sell a lot of books in Norwegian, some in Swedish, a LOT in English, and they also have a great selection of comics."
This bookstore is a cult place for all the local booklovers, it is mostly known for its large collection of comics, which is stored in the cellar. It also has a reputation of the city’s most radical bookstore. You will find lots of left-wing oriented literature and radical magazines. Books on different subcultures, gay/lesbian literature and numerous political subjects such as globalization, exploitation of the Third world, social movements or feminism are also peculiar to this place. A wide selection of fiction and non-fiction books in English, one of the specialties of the store are authors belonging to the beat generation.
