    Default Book Collection: Letti

    I am not a big collector but I am in love with books and when I have a little money I buy them eagerly.
    Anyway I have Hungarian editions (how interesting) and I thought some of you would be interested in them - however they are not so nice.


    Here are the Hungarian DT editions (you can see I have only six of them because the last book hasn't been published yet):




    Wizard and Glass a bit closer:

    That Hungarian cover of It is the creepiest thing i've ever seen!

    Awesome collection though Letti, it's so neat to see the Hungarian perspective on the books.

    Very, very nice, Letti!

    My wife just got back from Hungary. Before she left, I told her to get me ANY Stephen King book, but she forgot! She and her sister are going back next year, so I'm going to show her your pictures (especially of the Dark Tower books) so she know what to get me.

    Nice pictures Letti! Thanks for sharing with us.

    I had a paperback of IT (English) with the same picture...I wish I still had it but it was stolen. The current on I have isn't as cool.

    I'm impressed as hell by anyone fluent enough to read an entire book in two different languages. Kudos to you, Letti!

    Foreign editions are always interesting to see. Thanks for sharing.

    Hope you like Odd Thomas.

    Awww, thank you for your kind words, Patrick.

    I love 1984 and Orwell.

    The English and the Hungarian editions next to each other:


    The English one a bit closer, I love the cover a lot:

    Uh, thank you all. Really.
    I love books.
    I love my books.

    I started to work in a restaurant as a cleaning lady when I was about 16 and it was my first workplace.. when I got my first payment in my life I ran to a bookshop and I started to buy books. I felt free. And I felt - "damn, it's good to work".
    At home I put them on my bookshelf proudly.
    I felt wonderful.

    My mom told me I was crazy. "Girl.. you have money and you buy books." However she loves reading. Still she thought I should have bought something else from my little money.

    I too enjoyed looking at the Hungarian copies. That's really cool Letti! I'd like to see other copies of King in foreign languages.
    It's something I've never really considered before.
