I’m finally holding my book in my hands!
Hard cover, very shiny.
I know I get only about 4 Ukrainian visitors a week but if, by some miraculous chance, you are reading this in Ukraine, I have some promotional copies.
Тиснить на ось цей ґудзик, залишайте своє відділення Нової пошти та все інше, і я вам надішлю примірника безкоштовно:
Нічого від вас не хочу, тільки подарувати книгу.

Thank you!! I can’t believe I’m now a Ukrainian writer.
Now I really look forward to retirement when I’ll be able to write half a dozen more books on the national literature of several countries.

Congratulations on the physical book! I was worried its publication might have been affected by the event in Kharkiv a few days ago… (pure savagery).

Thank you! My publisher is in Kyiv but it can happen anywhere at any time. Yesterday, a Ukrainian version of Home Depot in Kharkiv. Earlier, the children’s railway I remember from my childhood. It’s unending savagery, and I don’t know what to hope for at this point.

It’s 7M+1 now, and my page refresh may have been 7M …
BTW, interesting that the bindery cared enough to do foil accents on the front cover, nice touch that.
