German Book Trailer!

Still recovering from Dragon*Con and Decatur Book Fest--I think I picked up a nasty cold there, which is sad-making. Also sore-throat-and-runny-nose-making. But! Big announcement of prize winners TOMORROW!

And until then, can I entice you with the German Book Trailer for Across the Universe? I have NO IDEA what it says, but that bit at the end gave me goosebumps! Click here to see for yourself.

I translate it for you. It's your book and you should know what they're saying :-)


Female voice: I'm as still as the dead. It's the silent that's driving me crazy.

"300 hundred years in constant darkness"

Female voice: Maybe I'm already dead. That's my biggest fear.

"Far away from earth towards a uncertain future"

Female voice: When they unfreeze me after 301 years and I look exactly like I do now.

Male voice: I touch the glass that she's lying in and only notice now, how cold it is.

"Though something is not going as planned"

Female voice: I want to scream!

Male voice: I stare down at her. She is the most beautiful person I've ever seen, but also the most strangest.

"Because she's awaken to early"

Female voice: I want to open my eyes and awake, but I can't.

"50 years too early"

Male voice: She has to wake up.

"A great love, the dream of freedom and deadly risks"

Chills. Gave me chills. I understood a little bit of it, but not the whole thing. Still, I've read the book so I got the gist and that was one of the best book trailers I've ever seen. I've gotta hand it to the Germans. They make awesome book trailers.
