Mr. Thomas says they miss you in the poetry group...

The weird thing is that I ordered it late Saturday (normal delivery) and it is already here on Monday. I love the cover. I am a huge Edvard Munch fan. I am becoming a fan of Bloodaxe Books. If they are really "poetry with an edge", like their site proclaims, then they will love my poems.

Thanks! I just ordered a copy of The Puberty Tree off of alibris.com.

You're friends with D.M. Thomas? That must be extremely rewarding! I didn't know that he wrote poetry. I will definitely look for one of his poetry books. I would love for him to see some of my poetry, but I won't even ask you about it because I know how busy he must be.

Have you read Alexander Theroux? I have read ABOUT him, but have never read any of his books. I am going to plunge into "Darconville's Cat" soon.

I too loved "The White Hotel" by D.M. Thomas. It is a book that I often recommend to people.

It is amazing that we have 160 books in common.

Hi, your short stories collections are excellent...

We noticed that you were a Jorge Luis Borges fan, and we wanted to let you know that we’ve just published a brand new translation of his story, “Gradus Ad Parnassum,” in our anthology, ‘flatmanCROOKED – First Winter.’ “Gradus Ad Parnassum” is not currently in print in English, so we’re rather excited to publish what is to many Borges fans brand new work. The book also includes debut fiction from National Book Award winner Ha Jin, as well as stories from myriad other established and emerging authors. Check the book out at www.flatmancrooked.com/fmcmarket.html. If you get it through our website, it’s significantly cheaper than through Amazon or Barnes & Noble!
