aurum press ed SL4BAurum Press, Ltd. is bringing out an English edition of Self-Loathing for Beginners, re-entitled I Can Make You Loathe Yourself : The Infallible Step-by Step Programme for Lowering Your Self-esteem. Evidently, there’s a popular series of motivational books that begin with “I Can Make You…” (Rich, Successful, Gullible, etc.), and this new title is a riff on that. The target pub date is October 25th. The text will remain basically the same, with a few updates and cross-cultural adjustments.

Waterstone’s, London’s largest bookstore, plans to push it for Christmas, along with sugarplums, I hope, and a few well-deserved lumps of coal.
