Yogya's Old Books Corner
Feeding my addiction of reading, i then jump to a small hidden used books store at a cavy-neat place in Yogyakarta. It's located on Gang I Sosrowijayan, the north corner of Malioboro and Tugu Station. After you find the street, come inside, then walk for about 200 meters, and you'll find a bookstore named "Lucky, Boomerang BookStore". This bookstore sell both used and new books. The lucky is, you could bring back book you don't want, the bad, you get a half of price for turning. Exactly, it's win-win solution, in case you could find rare book with lower price. In my visit, I found The Book of Ruth written by Jane Hamilton with cost only 28.000 rupiah, a good novel that awarded PEN/Ernest Hemingway Prize and also picked as November 1996 Oprah Book ClubŪ Selection. Any other cheap?
