About my libraryYou know : books downstairs, upstairs, near the bed, in the bathroom... So, do not pay attention to the "@___" collections : they just refer to a possible location of the books in my fuzzy environment.

We noticed that you were a Jorge Luis Borges fan, and we wanted to let you know that we’ve just published a brand new translation of his story, “Gradus Ad Parnassum,” in our anthology, ‘flatmanCROOKED – First Winter.’ “Gradus Ad Parnassum” is not currently in print in English, so we’re rather excited to publish what is to many Borges fans brand new work. The book also includes debut fiction from National Book Award winner Ha Jin, as well as stories from myriad other established and emerging authors. Check the book out at www.flatmancrooked.com/fmcmarket.html. If you get it through our website, it’s significantly cheaper than through Amazon or Barnes & Noble!

L'édition J'ai Lu est particulièrement trompeuse, Clarke et Preuss étant présentés comme auteurs sur le 1 et 4 de couverture. Même si j'ai peu de doutes quant au fait que l'écrivain soit bien Preuss, la postface de Clarke n'apporte guère d'avoir de certitude. Enfin, d'autres sites attestent de la collaboration d'écriture : http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/c/arth...

Existe-t-il un travail bibliographique de référence afin de trancher?

RE: 2277226688 Base Vénus 1. Point de rupture
L'auteur de ce livre est Paul Preuss, et pas Arthur C. Clarke:
