FEATURED PAGE: A
slide show of even more Julian covers In Germany alone, there were four different hardcover editions published between 1965 and 1970, and a new hardcover edition published in 1988 - as well as three different German paperback editions since the late 1980s. The book has gone into at least eight hardcover printings in Spain over the past 18 years, and yet, despite the abundance of editions published in Spain, there is a unique Argentine edition of the book, although the Argentine text is the one translated for the book's first edition Spain. Plus there's also a handsome Catalan edition of Julian published in Barcelona, despite the fact that surely every Catalan speaker in Spain can also read and speak Spanish. At left below is a 2000 paperback edition of Julian from Turkey, one of two new Turkish editions of the novel. In Iran, the Persian edition comes in a two-volume set, and pictured here is the cover of volume two. The handsome Czech edition has a series of beautiful blue-tinted illustrations inside that appear about every 20 pages. The French paperback simply shows Julian sketched in profile, while the 1999 German paperback shows Julian consoling a friend. The covers of Creation also abound in images of ancient history.
