My birthday present from my wife, the Dry Salvages book, did arrive today. She ordered it last week from Walmart.com as I had previously noted, so if anyone's still hunting this down and can't find it from the usual sources, go there. (Not in any way knocking other fine sources of books; I just think it's mighty funny that my wife ordered this from Smileyface Central).
Interesting note- the book jacket used indicated it's the signed, limited edition. Of course, it's not signed or limited (nor was it purchased that wife- my wife bought the regular edition). Your publisher may be interested in that fact, Caitlin. Or he may not be. Just a note. In the interim, I figure I have a unique edition- a signed/non-signed limited/non-limited edition. It is a singularity, a SpeciesBook of One, and there's something mighty cool about that. (At least until we all find out that Walmart sold all their stock that way.)
Dry Salvages post! My god, I'm on topic!
