Big news! Why Can’t Somebody Just Die Around Here? is now available in Kindle format!

You can now read Gerhard’s book as an ebook on your Kindle reader, or any other device that has the Kindle app (iOS and Android devices).

While it is nice to cozy up by a fire and read a hefty paper book, it is a bit more challenging to lug one around on vacation or other travels. And Gerhard is now offering the ebook version for international sales, as well, since “shipping” is much more reasonable (i.e., free) for ebooks.

Get the Kindle version of Why Can’t Somebody Just Die Around Here? from Amazon, or put your hands on a good old physical book either directly from Gerhard himself or on Amazon.com.

	Why Can't Somebody Just Die Around Here? by Gerhard Maroscher, 6in x 9in, 344 pages, $17.99
	You can pay with a credit card. You do not have to have a PayPal account. Look for the other options on the right hand side of the next screen. If you want more than one copy you will have the opportunity to change the quantity on the next screen. Media Mail postage is $3.99 per book. Sales tax will be added to orders for Ohio residents. For the moment international orders are being handled directly with Gerhard.
	Orders will ship within 1-3 days via USPS Media Mail, which takes 2-9 days to arrive.

What a breathtaking and inspiring story [my high school German teacher] and his family went through, and I would suggest everyone to hear him speak or read his book. -Matthew Berger

[Gerhard’s] story is very much the same as my father’s, and the same of many currently who are trying to come here to build a better life for their children. Check out his book, “Why Can’t Someone Just Die Around Here?” to better understand the atrocities of war, disease, food insecurity, and a mother’s love for her children. -Jennifer Hutchinson

On Monday evening Gerhard spoke to the Beta Rho chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma, a sorority of active and retired teachers.

Thank you for sharing a peek into your book last evening at our Beta Rho meeting. Your story is inspiring and shocking and heart-warming (all at the same time!) -Patty Truex

Update: the talk has been mentioned in the Circleville Herald!

On February 15, at 6:30pm Gerhard will speak at the Pickaway County Public Library in Circleville, Ohio!

Last week I had the opportunity to tell my story to members of the Old North High Club. All of them, including me, are graduates of the long closed Columbus North High School. The pictures don’t show the audience so you’ll have to take my word for it that 60-70 people were in attendance. As you can see, there is proof of a book signing afterward!

As of this past Friday my book is being sold at Gramercy Books, a new bookstore in Bexley, Ohio!

Here is an article from the Columbus Dispatch about the new bookstore, as well as some photos. Looks like a great place for books, coffee, and cakes!
