Are you a book lover?

Is there any abridged copy of Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe? I got one at the University of the Philippines Diliman–College of Arts and Letters Library and the novel was dated way back c. 1929. The words are so hard to understand some words and idioms, imagine, it was 1929? Even the way the niggers (sorry for the term, but it is what Stowe suggests to) talk english is hard to understand. Is there any abridged one, the one that was described by 1980s, 1990s or 200s American English, plus the transliteration of the niggers’ language, today?

Where can I find one? Meron bang ganun sa Recto, Manila o kaya naman ay sa Diliman area?
If you have… Please refer that to my e-mail.

yes i am!

and i had that exactly book you ask!
had, because my friend borrowed long a go and never returned it :(
but, i also have another abridged classic novel, which has the same publisher.
i can tell you who the publisher is.

the book’s publisher is Dian Rakyat.
unfortunately, this is an Indonesian publisher,
and i’m not sure if they export their books all the way to Manila.
but, here it says that the book is under license of Aschehoug Dansk Forlag, Denmark.

so, maybe you can google the Denmark company,
or even simpler, go to clickbank.com and search it.

i hope that can help you, even only a bit.
good luck ;)

cheers,
Dita.
