Pelevin being the exception? Larry Send a noteboard - 26/01/2012 11:49:18 PM

I'm still waiting for his latest to come out in translation. It was supposed to have been released in December, but it seems to have been delayed until February at least.

Considering his first 20... Larry - 26/01/2012 09:30:10 PM 742 Views
Oh, nevermind, I'd overlooked his plays there on the 16th position. Ignore what I said. Legolas - 26/01/2012 09:42:03 PM 732 Views
You were absolutely 100% correct, though. Tom - 26/01/2012 11:29:50 PM 660 Views
It was more in chronological order, rather than in terms of quality Tom - 26/01/2012 11:35:10 PM 2616 Views

Zamyatin? *NM* rebelaessedai - 30/01/2012 10:17:29 AM 343 Views
What did you want to ask about Zamyatin? *NM* Tom - 31/01/2012 08:38:31 PM 311 Views
