Marcel,
I don't know if you recall, but we met in Bangkok some years ago to talk about your translation efforts. I'm glad to see that you are getting set up to sell your work as e-books. I have a question about access for libraries, however. Can we purchase a single use or multiple use copy, and what kind of platform would they run on?
We usually purchase e-books from large vendors, whose platforms we know. Can you give me any advice on this question?
Thanks a lot.

Dear All:
I want to buy quite a few of the Thai novels translated into English in paperbacks.
Where can I buy these paperback books in Bangkok?
Thank you.

David, in large bookshops in town you should find most works by Chart Korbjitti in my translation, including the above under the title 'An ordinary story (and others less so)' as well as 'Carrion floating by', both recently issued (awful covers, though). Online, dco.thai should have a few copies left of some of my Thai Modern Classics 1990s titles.
