Allegedly, finally, Faber will be republishing Patrick Hamilton's first novel, 'Monday Morning' (although they promised it last year and the year before, too, so I'm not entirely convinced)

Not only dermatologists hate her (James Morrison), Tuesday, 3 January 2012 22:21 (thirteen years ago)

thats interesting abt the DeWitt. i wonder if it's at all diff from the one she was just selling the .pdf of herself a few yrs ago - i have that somewhere and i recall it prob could have been well served w/ some editing/revising

Also waiting for Gene Wolfe's The Land Across, but don't have a date for it.

The Restored Finnegans Wake

glumdalclitch, Thursday, 5 January 2012 16:59 (thirteen years ago)

why doesn't amazon.com have that?

markers, Thursday, 5 January 2012 19:17 (thirteen years ago)

copyright mostly (+ stephen joyce is a dick, as I understand it).

I believe Finnegans Wake will fall out of copyright in the US sometime in the 2030s, so yknow patience.

you don't exist in the database (woof), Thursday, 5 January 2012 22:37 (thirteen years ago)

This is great news if it's true.
