In the last decade the world has achieved an astonishing turnover-speed, but that does not apply to books published in China. I think it took me two years to get my hands on the book. And a lot of emails preceded that. Sometimes I doubted whether the book was in the bookstores over there. But it defenitely was worth the trouble: I finally have a copy and it really looks fantastic. Not only because it is full of mysterious Chinese characters, but also because the book has been published larger, so that Ludwig’s drawings are even more beautiful than they already were.

And the good news is that they will also be publishing ‘Whole Stories for Half a Soldier’. Probably in 2024 0f 2025.
