Subject: GR in Russian

dear colleagues -

so, it finally happened, and since this week, Gravity's Rainbow officially 
exists in Russian, complete with 760 pages, and seven little squares between 
episodes

it took my colleague Anastasia Gryzunova and me several years to complete it, 
and we thank all of you who could help and advice us, no matter how indirectly

today it appeared in the largest Russian internet bookstore Ozon: 
http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/18529078/ - that operates internationally, 
although the interface is in Russian only, alas. oh, and the first edition is 
cautious 2000 only

the first edition is glossy gray, with no misleading images on the cover, thank 
God, but the second one, planned for September, is kinda pop-art, here's the 
preview: http://fantlab.ru/edition91468 - this one seems to be planned as 3000, 
the publisher is the same but the department within it is different, so don't 
ask

while i'm not sure about the rest of TRP's novels in Russian (after the COL49, 
that is) for the texts of V. and Vineland are in different states of disarray, 
to the best of my knowledge, and i'm not aware what the publisher is going to do 
with them, i can safely say that last week i submitted my translation of 
Inherent Vice to them, so there's hope that it will be published some time

again, thank you all so much for making our lives more intricate,
Mx
