bad language warning...

Upon seaching Amazon.de it seems only the Rafik Schami's book is available new at a princely sum of 8 Euros. The other two are available second-hand, but the sellers will only post within Germany. Fucking brilliant! I checked out Voyager and only the özdamar book has one copy on order and the other two books arent in there at all

I think I'm gonna stick to linguistics. It's not what you're probably thinking - are you imagining the phonetic alphabet and researching the centuries-old roots of language? It's all about how people speak and how this relates to social status, gender, education and self-image. It's more like sociology, and I'm really looking forward to it! Besides, isn't it one of Wini's? She's a great teacher, and I know I can pass her courses.

They will probably have the books in Waterstones. In second year I did a lit module with Greg and he forgot to tell Waterstones to order them, and we couldn't get any of the books for weeks and he had to photocopy them all for us.

I know about linguistics as I did it in the education dept in 1st year. So I know a bit about various languages from it, but it really did not appeal to me.
I've never had Wini as a lecturer.

The bookshop isnt waterstones anymore. I spent about 15 mins finding the stupid phone number of it and just rang and they will be getting 6 copies of each by mid-week next week. Problem solved. One happy Shaz.
