THE BOOK CORNER:
We have received many questions about Norwegian books, so we have
decided to have a weekly "Book Corner" on Saturdays in which we
present one or more Norwegian books we think might interest you.
This week, we will be focusing on dictionaries. Note that the
prices listed do not include mailing costs. Below are short
descriptions of three suppliers, one in Norway and two in the US.
