36、40 pages per cent of original, with words, sentences, paragraphs and, in a few cases, chapters removed. The first six shortened editions, all priced at 6.99 and advertised as great reads “in half the time”, will go on sale next month, with plans for 50 to 100 more to follow. The publishing house bel
37、ieves that modern readers will welcome the shorter versions. Mr. Edwards 2007-5-12 9: 40 AM Well, Im publisher of Orion Group. Thanks for your attention, Mr. Handsome.

41、n independent bookshop Corckatt & Powell. In my opinion, the practice is completely ridiculous. How can you edit the classics?
