Foreign John Green Books and the Ultimate Concern

In which John Green discusses a few of the foreign editions of his novels Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, and Paper Towns, all while discussing the idea of an ultimate concern, including the question of whether and how it is possible to live by the utilitarian values advocated for by many nerdfighters.

And there is a brief mention of boobs.

"this book is better than 21 regular books"

I gotta say this, John. You said, "La fesse caché de Margo," not "La face caché de Margo," so instead of being titled "The hidden side of Margo," you are under the impression that Paper Towns, in French, is titled "The hidden buttock of Margo."

That means "Catcher in the Rye 21st Century". I sure hope that wasn't one of your books...

@sheadatear I was wondering if that was what I thought it was xD Thanks.

The feet on Margos Spuren makes sense though, because it literally translates to "The footprints of Margo"
