Similar problem with period sci-fi author Philip K. Dick. If you want "Do Androids", Amazon pushes the French language version. If you opt for the Kindle version, you get a rewrite at 'Level V', which is apparently restricted to a 1,800 word vocab, or some such. Hard to just get the d*&% book. And B&N, their search toy returns a null report. Go figure. I have no hypothesis other than greed and laziness. Or maybe Heinlein's Stand on Zanzibar has arrived. What's your theory?
