I tried replying to your email and the message bounced.  I do not live in the tri-state area (wherever that is-Illinois, Indiana and Michigan or NY, NJ and PA or CT, I am in Central Texas.  Thanks for mentioning the shipping costs.  I doubt that I will buy the book unless it is the English translation.  But if there is a Russian reader who would be willing to check names for me, I would be willing to share the cost of the book - or even buy it as a gift for her.
