Hot on the heels of this news: just heard that @YordamKitap has acquired the Turkish translation rights! Türk yoldaşlarının Yurttaş Marx'ı okuyabilecek olmalarına sevindim ✊
Very pleased that @Versolibros has acquired the Spanish translation rights for Citizen Marx! "Ciudadano Marx" estará disponible para el público de habla hispana a principios de 2026! ✊ @smnvzqz @PrincetonUPress
