excellent, let us know if you get a reply. who is the UK publisher ? do they do ebooks so far ? i admit i was rather surprised and pleased to see the french one was available (even if only in mobipocket or pdf, since it was published over a year ago, and gallimard doesn't seem to be too motivated to make a new epub version of this book so far... not that i can't convert the mobi book, of course
), although i was less pleased when i saw the original price of course. gallimard is the publisher making the smallest reduction for their digital editions that i know of, only 5%, which makes it effectively the same price as the paper book since the fnac (large bookstore chain) sells their paperbooks regularly with a 5% discount.
