Athena Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 That's interesting! I wonder where the Netherlands would rank. Belgium is said to be very near the bottom, though I think we'd be slightly higher than Belgium. At least, in Dutch book shops I see much more Dutch books than Belgian ones. Of course, I don't know what it's like in Belgium, they might have more Belgian books there in book shops than Dutch ones. Quote

Talisman Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I am very surprised to read this, as I have always thought it was Iceland that produced and read the most. At least that is what they tell you. Quote
