LEARNING RUSSIAN

The list author says:
	"Over ten years old now but still the best beginners book by far...buy this before anything else, it will definitely take you to intermediate level"

The list author says:
	"Another interesting beginners book but not very good if you aren't a fast learner- if you can only afford one book, get the above!"

The list author says:
	"If you're serious about learning Russian, you'll have to get to grips with the verbs- and this is the book to do it!"

The list author says:
	"A very clear and succinct handbook on all major areas of Russian grammar. More appropriate than a larger, expensive book."

The list author says:
	"Extremely helpful for the advancing student; no good for beginners. Provides guidance on style and register etc."

The list author says:
	"Phrase books tend to be quite poor but this one isn't too bad- good for carrying around in your pocket when in Russia!"

The list author says:
	"The book you should use after "New Penguin Russian Course". Covers aspects of Russian life, as well."

The list author says:
	"Provides vocabulary lists...worth picking up if you're doing the GCSE or A-Level."

The list author says:
	"I've not come across any particularly brilliant Russian/English dictionaries so one such as this will have to suffice!"

The list author says:
	"Not a fan of the actual novel but the Russian translation is very good and will help to increase your word stock."

The list author says:
	"Same as above. If you can find it, the best translation I have read in Russian is "The Lion, Witch And The Wardrobe"."

The list author says:
	"Culture and history comes as part of the parcel with any language, so a book like this will fill you in with the basic information on Russia."

The list author says:
	"Russian literature (English translation should probably be read first unless your Russian is VERY good)."

The list author says:
	"As above"

The list author says:
	"Superb but challenging read"

The list author says:
	"Russian film: the best I have seen (not that I've seen very many, admittedly)."
