The cover of ZOOPARK, my new dual-language anthology. It will soon be released as a Kindle book (but not as a Nook book as Nooks [at least those I'm familiar with] don't handle Cyrillic).

A bilingual SF anthology (English and Russian)

A few days ago, the terrific Russian SF magazine, ESLI, asked to buy another of my stories to translate and publish. It will be the twelfth of my stories they will have published. All but one of them have appeared first in Analog Magazine (the other in Asimov's).

That gave me an idea: it would be neat to do a Kindle bilingual anthology of my ESLI stories. One could click to go from the English to Russian versions, and back. The e-book might be appealing to Russian/English language students. And who knows, If we're lucky, we may even be able to get it uploaded to the International Space Station for American astronauts and Russian Cosmonauts. Analog Magazine is already there.

The ESLI editor has graciously agreed to supply the Russian versions so the project is a go. A bilingual cover will be a challenge.

As a language hobbyist, I'm excited about this. I just wish my Russian was better.
