If We Make It Through December
Auryn Vientania • 2023
Desember bagi Amai adalah waktu untuk menonton pertunjukan teater Bhanu-lelaki yang ditemuinya tiga bulan lalu, tapi rasanya sudah ia kenal sejak lama. Desember bagi Asyera adalah perenungan tentang perjalanan enam tahun bersama kekasihnya, Alga. Haruskah ia bertahan hanya karena sudah terlalu lama bersama? Desember bagi Djoeli adalah pertemuan-pertemuan dengan Khadafi dalam ruangan rapat. Mencuri pandang sambil menaruh harap di antara dua puluh lima orang lainnya. Desember bagi Keisha adalah kesempatan untuk membalik permainan dengan menyatakan cinta kepada Laskar setelah membuat laki-laki itu menunggu selama setahun. Desember bagi Alesha adalah sendiri bersama salju musim dingin di Turki, menunda pulang ke Jakarta, karena takut bertemu masa lalu. Desember adalah perhentian, tapi juga keputusan. Titik balik, juga titik Dan jikalau semua ini telah berlalu, apa yang akan terjadi pada mereka ? Berapa lama waktu yang dibutuhkan seseorang untuk mengenal orang lain? Seminggu? Sebulan? Setahun? Pertanyaan yang setiap hari berenang di benakku. Gaduh dan gemuruh pertanyaanpertanyaan itu kutanyakan pada diri sendiri. Mungkin untuk mengenal seseorang membutuhkan jeda agar dapat memilahmilah. Banyak orang datang di hidupku, ada yang sudah mengenal bertahun-tahun namun hanya sebatas tahu nama, ada yang baru mengenal beberapa minggu tapi sudah terasa akrab. Banyak orang itu pun tak menjamin mereka akan tetap tinggal, tapi ada berapa kebetulan yang bisa kuharapkan? "Mai?" Suara Adina menghancurkan lamunanku. "Lo nggak apa-apa, kan?" Ada jeda sebelum aku menjawab. Jeda tiga detik yang cukup membuat Adina mengerti memang ada apa-apa. "Wanna talk about it?" tanya Adina lagi, dengan tatapan yang menunggu jawaban. Kualihkan pandangan kembali pada buku sketsa di depanku. tidak menggeleng atau mengatakan tidak untuk menolak bercerita. Aku hanya tersenyum dan lanjut menggambar. "Lo itu ya, selalu begitu," kata Adina kembali memilih menyantap hidangannya. Pelan-pelan dengan kepala yang masih terasa melayang,

Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency.
