Where can you buy books in Finnish?

Preferably online. I’m looking to get a copy of ‘Valon Reunalla’ by Maria Peura. I can’t get to Finland…or the Finnish Library in London (if there is one?)

Anyone know how I can get a copy.
England’s absolutely rubbish for selling books in foreign languages. Or books in English sometimes, in piddly little towns like mine where the only bookshop is Waterstones and, for example, the one poetry shelf is full of LETTS EXPLORE revision guides. Grr.

Learning Bulgarian?

skapunkspud asked:


I want to learn Bulgarian….whats the best way to go about it? Ive looked in local bookshops and cant find a book on it, but i guess i can find one online. or would it be better to find someone to teach me?
is it a hard language to learn?….they use the cyrillic alphabet which i find confusing.
Im fairly good at languages, i pick them up pretty quick….how long do you think it would take me to get reasonably good at Bulgarian?
Ideally i’d like to be able to speak it fairly well (the basics) by summer (July). Obviously i dont expect to master it by then but a basic understanding would be great. what do you lot reckon?
