Sorry I should have been more specific. I'm not talking about non english titles or translated versions, I'm talking about the books published in English that gets blocked with geographic restriction. As for promotion, I don't think I ever seen as much as an ad for books written in English here in Norway. The only promotion you see is for the translated versions.
I don't want the publisher or author to decide in which language I can read the book.
