Låt den rätte komma in First Edition

Post by Opeth » Thu Jan 11, 2018 12:11 am

I thought someone here might be interested in my first edition: https://www.ebay.com/itm/282804927409?s ... 1558.l2649 - I still adore Let the Right One In though I have not seen or read it in a good few years; I'd say it is time for a re-watch & read.

Yep. Sounds like. P.S.: I miss you. How's the music coming? :)

Awww, I have missed this place and the people here, I do stop by from time to time. I haven't been working on music as of late though that's something I'm trying to change. I was working on music with some close friends last year & the year before but I had a terrible falling out... still, I want to finish/re-record the songs we were working on. 8-)

Okay. Keep us in the loop. I have a dear old friend who is in NZ right now visiting his daughter and thinking about migrating. Got your PM.

It appears to be in Swedish.

There are of course first editions of all translations. This one, however, is a first edition of the original Swedish text. It is therefore more “first” than the translations, which were published later.

I know I am trying to decide if it would be cooler to have the first first edition or a copy I can read since I have 2 copy's already in English.

I got lots of first editions, but this is the best one.
Very first Swedish hardcover edition in near mint condition...
Simply sublime.
