Hi, we appreciate your patience as we work through the tremendous backlog. The website you provided doesn't show the ISBN. We need a webpage showing the ISBN/ASIN and other book data to validate the info and if available we need it for the cover image. It should be non-bookseller site (Amazon & AbeBooks excepted), so from the publisher, library or another acceptable site: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/..., if you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy for the cover and the page with the publication information (you can upload a scan/photo of your own to the "more photos..." section of your profile (https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new) in the browser, not the app), then copy the link here and a librarian can add it. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text and that your account settings are public (not private).
Kindly change this topic's title, showing the title of the requested book as the subject. This facilitates the sorting on language.

* Description: Against a dynamic backdrop of historical events and figures, Peter Prizel (Verses of the Soviet Rail, An Angelic Folly, and The Fermented Savior) weaves a series of absurdist, fantastical stories about humanity and reimagining the past. Here are sentient tanks, jingoistic cured meats, and lovelorn statues. Newton, Pushkin, Einstein, and the ghosts of Beethoven and Pablo Escobar grapple with their dreams and failings and complex legacies; while a bear searches for equality, circus clowns foment insurrection, and an iguana incites a revolt. From frigid Siberia to historic Cordoba Spain to the booming metropolis of Taipei, Fables Obscura is an astonishing collection of surrealist tales told with humor, tenderness, and mesmerizing wit.
