Ich habe zwei Geschichten gekürzt, die mit dem General und die mit dem Ex-Präsidenten. Leider findet sich weder Peary noch Wilde...
Hubert: Falls Du Dir eine englische Ausgabe kaufst, ich habe schon in vier Städten geschaut, die einzigie Ausgabe, die ich immer wieder finde, ist Penguin Paperback. Meine englische Buchhandlung behauptete zunächst sogar, die sei vergriffen. Ich weiss deshalb nicht, ob man sie noch bestellen kann.
