Gestern nun habe ich erstmal Ihren Seba in den Händen gehalten. Was ist das für ein schönes Buch geworden! Ich war regelrecht bewegt von dem, was da vor mir lag. Ich hätte mir niemals erträumen können, daß ein in allen Details so ausgefeiltes und großartiges Werk daraus werden würde - und daß es Verlage gibt (oder besser: einen Verlag gibt?), der so etwas zu seinen Zielen macht. Ich kenne noch den Begriff der 'Buchkunst' - in so einem Fall darf man ihn
wieder benutzen.
