Noticed you liked Clockwork Orange, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a group of violent kids (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Thanks,

Chris

RE: Cassidy's Girl

I'm happy to scan this cover for your Goodis site, which is great btw. What resolution would you like? Busy week with students returning, might take me a bit to get to it.

Dear Dave:

Yes, I've been emailing furiously with Guido about it. I didn't know or remember that I sent you the dub, and you sent it to PWB. However, Bussard sent me an acetate with it on it, which was what I must have used, since he's got the only copy

Dear Dave:

I don't know if the last comment was sent, as there was some trouble with the connection. Do you have the CD Hotwalker by Tom Russell? If not, I'll send you a dub.
Best wishes, Roger

i love the page. i've loved it since I first discovered it, years ago.
i just started using it to upload pictures for librarything. i'm moving pretty slow at that. eventually, i'll probably scan what isn't represented on your page. then, i'll send along those pictures to you. sometimes, it's hard to look at your site. It's like being a dirty impoverished hungry child in a candy store. i can't touch or buy. but god knows, i know what that's like. hope all is well, brother.

Hey, thanks! I love that page and had no idea it was yours. Congratulations on the most complete W.S.B. cover gallery ever. I've often wondered who put that together. Now that I know it's updated regularly I'll visit it more often. Also, I'll let you know whenever I finish editing The Road To Interzone. I picked it up again after the beginning of the year. I've been away from it for four years. I feel like it's complete but it needs some work. I'll keep you updated. Thanks for writing. All the best, -Michael.

Hey Dave:

Of course I remember. Sorry it's taken me so long to reply, but I've not been on this site in a while & just now found your email.

How's everything going with you?

All best,
Jeff

Yes, I did indeed have a piece about Goodis in Crimetime!

Oh, duh. Got all wrapped up about Bodenheim and I forgot to mention why I added you to my "interesting libraries" list. With the several shared interests I will be browsing among the authors you list with whom I am not familiar. Feel sure I'm likely to find some more gems.

cheers.

Hi- I added you to my list of "interesting libraries" because of our several shared interests such as Fante, Bodenheim, and Chester Himes. Of course there is Bukowski, but he seems so popular on here that I've stopped using his writing as a barometer of common interests. Seems Bodenheim is hard to come by these days. I don't know of any reissues of his books and the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s books have gotten harder to find. I have one or two more not yet listed, including one of his poetry, which he regarded much higher than his prose. I agree. For me, his poetry contains some of the best verse I've read in English. His prose presents interesting slices of Americana.

Hi!
I had to investigate the title "Bukowski's book"....I couldn't find it on my shelf, it seems like I added it together with some Bukowski titles frpm someone else's library and it was a mistake, I probably confused it with the other Jim Burns title I have. Anyway, I deleted it from my library but now I can't find it at all in the total database....interesting.
Anyway, I don't have that book - wish I had...sounds interesting...:-). I wonder if there is a book with that title? I must have added it from somewhere. You know Burns? Maybe you should ask Burns to write it..?
Let's keep in contact
Best wishes

I will check out that Burns title and I'll be back.
Until later
