Greetings!
My wife and I shall be visiting Rome later this month, and have two questions about bookstores.
We shall be arriving at Termini from Florence in early afternoon. There seems to be a decent bookstore in the station! How good is it for maps? We have guidebooks and a few city maps, but in particular we want a fairly detailed map of the Forum. I saw a video of the bookstore on YouTube, and it seemed a bit crowded: could we navigate it if we each have a carry-on and personal item in tow?
What is the best multilingual bookstore on both Italy-related academic topics (for example, Neolithic and Bronze-Age Italy) and non-Italy-related specialized academic topics (Russian and Asian cultures, history, languages, etc.)? I am thinking of something vaguely like Powell's in Chicago or the Strand in New York. We do not really read Italian, but can read English, Russian, French, etc.
Many thanks in advance!
