<h3>Confessions of a international born writer </h3>
I needs to confess that English is my 3rd language, or even although this ebook has been edited through a number of expert local English editors, it really is obvious—even to me— that this booklet is written by way of a Foreign-born writer.

Foreign-born or now not, i feel i've got a expertise for storytelling, and i've switched over a lifeless topic—the transformation of Amazon from a retail web site to a marketplace—into a fascinating and vigorous tale.

while you are searching for a 1,000-page treatise on Amazon that may be used to illustrate of excellent grammar within the highschool English grammar type, then this publication will not be the fitting booklet for you. There are a number of different books on Amazon that are written in ideal English yet are completely dull.

A booklet approximately Amazon might be lovely dry, so i've got attempted so as to add a few humor. In my try to make this ebook humorous, a number of proof could have been stretched. I quote this passage from 21 puppy Years: Doing Time @ Amazon.com, written through Mike Daisey, a fellow Amazon alumnus–turned writer:
“Some proof have been injured within the telling of this tale. the reality, although, continues to be unharmed.”
That applies to this ebook to boot.

To recognize the privateness of the folks fascinated by this tale, their names were replaced — with one exception. belief me, there quite is a man named Jeff Bezos who works at Amazon.

All in all, i'm pleased with my paintings, get pleasure from!
