And e-book sales are booming while hardcovers are hurting .

电子图书的销售异常火爆，而精装书伤害。

And in june , amazon announced that it is now selling more electronic books than hardcovers .

在1月，亚马逊宣布它现在电子书销量超过了硬皮书。

I 'm sure we 'll always have deckle-edge hardcovers and mass market paperbacks , but I imagine the physical version of books will soon assume a cultural place analogous to that of fm radio .

虽然我很肯定有毛边的硬部面书和大量流通在市场的软面书仍然会存在，但是这存在就像广播一样，只是一种文化形式的保留。

The holidays , bercu adds , are definitely the season for hardcovers .

博苏还补充道，圣诞假期绝对是售卖精装书的好时节。

Hardcovers have less time to prove themselves in bookstores , since retailers tend to move them off the shelves more quickly than they used to .

由于零售书商比以往更快地把精装书从书架上下架，所以留给精装书在书架上证明自己的时间是越来越短了。
