Also where is the largest bookshop in hcmc?

The government owned, pronters and book retailers Ho Chi Minh City Book Distribution Joint Stock Company aka FAHASA. It's one of Asia's Top 500 retailers in the Asia-Pacific area.

And all their products meet government 'standards' (for pure thought).

HCM's official foreign-language bookstore, Xuan Thu, is at 185 Dong Khoi Tel. +84-(0)-8-3822-4670, across from the Continental Hotel. It has a limited selection of classics in English and French (mostly directed to Vietnamese readers), foreign-language newspapers, good regional maps, and VN published volumes for foreign students of Vietnamese. Daily 08.00-22.00H.

De Tham Street in the Phạm Ngũ Lão backpacker slum offers hole-in-the-wall stores with many pirated titles and used books. Some of them do swaps. There are a few book stores on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai @ Le Thai To traffic circle. There you will find MINH KHAI BOOK STORE (last building in the block).The few smaller used bookstores are a few doors past Minh Khai.
