    I know it's adapted from the intro, but since this adapted version appeared on the publisher's website, and not in print, I'm not sure if it should be seen as a first appearance. In Justin Brooks' bibliography, similar pieces have been added this way: An excerpt (or just abridged version) appeared in, say, The New York Times, and then appeared in its full text in a book. Then the NYT version is the first appearance; the book version is the second. This time around, it's an online exclusive, and I guess it's up to Justin if he will list this one. Hope it makes sense Just wanted to be clear if an online version is "valid."

    I'm flooding this place - sorry I just heard back from the publisher. The adapted piece IS an online exclusive, and there will be no print version of it. So either this is the first appearance, and the actual intro in the upcoming book will be the second. Or maybe not. But at least it's clarified.

    From another post on this same forum :

    My favorite poem is “Falling,” by James Dickey. Published in 1967, its delirious language, coupled with a clear narrative, make it a precursor to Dickey’s novel “Deliverance,” published three years later. The poem is audacious, sensuous and completely beautiful. It’s also as neat a parable of the human condition as has ever been written.

    So would I, if possible. Heck, just a scan would do if the book is sparse

    I see six people on this thread...I can fill those requests, and perhaps a couple more. If you aren't in the US let me know so I can calculate shipping charges.

    I'm still getting settled after the conference. I have at least six copies, maybe eight -- I'll have to check. I'll contact those people who've already requested a copy, and if I have any left over, I'll post a follow-up.

    For a picture -- imagine about 30 sheets of 8-1/2 x 11 paper (green) stapled together.
