Well Little Star is released in September for Europe...October here in Aus

so I would imagine (hopefully) it won't be long after Little Star that we should see Paper Walls...I just hope it isn't another year out...I really want to read LTODD for myself.

Paper Walls will be published by Text Publishing in Australia in 2012, and by Quercus in the UK around the same time. It might have a different title, and will include the title story from Let The Old Dreams Die. Itsy Bitsy from Paper Walls is already available in the US on Kindle, as I understand it. (I'm the translator, by the way!)

Welcome!

I hope you get a lot work in the future. Specifically, I hope you get approached to do an English script for Tjärven soon. ;) Haven't you been the English translator for all of John's works from Handling The Undead on?

...the story derives a lot of its appeal from its sense of despair and a darkness in which the love of Eli and Oskar seems to shine with a strange and disturbing light.
