Well-known names such as Thomas Keneally, Marilyn French, Chris Bohjalian, William Goldman and Edna O'Brien sit next to writers who are much harder to find in English, such as Tadeusz Konwicki, Marcel Aymé, Albert Cossery, Sergio Ramirez and Peter Høeg.
Each listing is one used copy we have on hand. If you want a certain edition, searching by the author's last name is usually faster than paging through the whole section.
