I've just booked my trip to Kiev, and the first thing I'm asking online is this, haha. Any multilingual bookstores? I'm especially interested in the Slavic languages and maybe Romanian, although finding something unusual in Italian or German would also be great! (like maybe some Ukrainian authors in translation? an amazing thought ♥)
Also, any online stores that represent well what you can find in a typical physical store?

I strongly suspect that you won't find anything interesting in Ukrainian. You seem to be from Russia... I think all the books about foreign languages will be in Russian and no doubt available where you are.
I don't think I've ever seen a huge book-shop in Ukraine as one would see in Australia, Korea or Japan.

I don't really mean books about languages (apart from the Slavic ones maybe), but just *in* various languages.
