Any euros here that know where to get The Recognitions, without paying huge shipping costs? I'm in Belgium if it helps. I tried bol.com, who had 8 weeks to ship, then prolonged that with 4 weeks, to cancel my order and give me my money back after 12 weeks.
>tfw orderd The Recognitions for 18 euros, waiting 12weeks, then having it canceled.

Amazon.de doesn't have it anymore and i saw a secondhand copy there go for 397euros.

Also: who remembers the memequads?

for people not living in france but who want to buy a book from a frenchman, they can ask for the good to be sent via the tariff LIVRES ET BROCHURES (it must be written, on the parcel, by the seller).

You're better off chronological if you have that edition (as do I) but if you want start with Poor Mouth. Dalkey Archive is comfy but a reworking of Policeman
