Walrus Books Review
A peaceful sanctuary away from the busy weekend street market, Walrus stocks more than 4,000 good quality books in English. American owner Geoff and his English-speaking staff are helpful yet unintrusive when it comes to selecting a translation of local masters or some contemporary literary fiction. Slide open the bargain drawer at the front of the store to uncover more reads perfect for whiling away time at airports.
