0179 2281 460 Apology to all our American friends. The US dollar price, however horrid looking
it may seem, is, unfortunately, a direct result of currency conversion. George W. Bush's aggressive
warmongering policy is directly contributing to your weak Dollar, and thus
empoverishes you, his own people and is certainly not making the world a
safer place. We will keep watching the currency
development and adjust the dollar price accordingly, hopefully in a more
favourable way for you. About Us Sirius
Book Works publishing was
created in 2004, as a consequence of Nabil Shaban's girlfriend, Marcela
Mikulenkova, asking if there was a book of his poetry and artwork. When he
replied "No, who would want to publish my stuff?", she replied
"I would." "Anyway, if you're an unknown like
me," Nabil continued, "it is almost impossible to get poetry
published. The poetry world is such a closed-shop, full of culture snobs.
Besides, my stuff is too scarey, too off the wall, too political…too bleak
and dark. Publishers today lack courage, are only interested in mass
audiences and Big Brother and other trivial Celebs." "So, let us form
our own publishing company," Marcela suggested, "and we will get
your work out to the people." It seems we are
following in a great tradition. All of the following at some time in their
careers had to dabble in self-publishing: Virginia
Woolf, Horace Walpole, Balzac, Walt Whitman, Gertrude Stein, John Galsworthy,
Rudyard Kipling, Beatrix Potter, Lord Byron, Thomas Paine, Mark Twain, Upton
Sinclair, Ezra Pound,D. H. Lawrence, Alexander Pope, James Joyce, Robbie
Burns and Anais Nin. William Blake published all his work, handprinting
his pages and good old Mrs Blake sewed on the covers. | ||||||||||||||||||||
