Pushkin Press
Publishing translations of classic and
contemporary European Literature
Publisher Melissa Ulfane founded Pushkin in 1997. I am so happy to find such a company to feed my obsession of devouring books. I love to carry books in my bag, hold the book and read the words while on the train, standing in line or taking a lunch break at work. Nothing, NOTHING is better then a books to hold and read.
Thank you Melissa Ulfane for your dedication and commitment to the written word!
You can even join the book club and be sent a book a month for a year. Go here for more details!!

I REALLY REALLY WANT THIS BOOK!!
"Ero dietro di te: you know what that means in English? It means I was behind you. She was actually sitting at a table behind us for the entire meal and she spent the whole time watching me without me realising. It’s funny, but I’m starting to think that it wouldn’t be stretching it to read something really symbolic into that phrase. It could also mean: “For all this time, all these years, I’ve been right behind you, as close as can be, and you didn’t notice me. It’s obvious you and I were meant to be together, but we screwed it up every time. Still, I’m right here, right now, and I want you to know it, the ball’s in your court, you won’t be able to say no one told you and complain you let the chance of a lifetime slip through your fingers.” See what I mean?"
Hope you enjoy browsing the book listing as much as I did.
