Looking for a book

Postby Sapphire eyes » Wed Jul 18, 2007 1:19 am

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me find a book It was reccomended to my mother and I want to find it for her. All I know is it published in Germany the book is called "A Train to Lisbon" and the Author's surname is Mercier.
Can anyone help me find it?. I have no idea where to look!
If any other kittens have any books that they can't find do post here and we can all help each other out hopefully! :)
I am a book nerd :)

Abebooks or booksprice are both good websites for finding just about any random book you can think of, whether it's in print or not. You can even find foreign titles.

The sure-fire way to search on either of these sites is to get the book's ISBN number and search using that.

From time to time I have also simply put the ISBN of a given book into google to see what turns up.

But of course title and author often work well as search terms.

...she says, potentially vying for the title of Biggest Book Nerd Ever. I think I am a wannabe librarian.
