Buenos Aires may be renowned for its long literary history and is a city swimming in used books, but, for the monolingual traveler, finding some of the great books in English is more challenging than one might think. Walrus Books, located in San Telmo, has accumulated a great selection of used English-language books at reasonable prices. Run by a North American ex-pat and his wife, Walrus is a cozy, vibrant little shop where travelers or members of the huge English-speaking community living in Buenos Aires can stock up on reading fiction, travel guides, classics, and children’s books. Walrus also buys books, so stop there if you need to unload some weight before you leave town. -Elizabeth Gleeson
