Announcement schedule for next quarter has been released. My guesses:
April - 'The Hellbound Heart' - edit: more likely something from Kealan Patrick Burke
May - 'Of Mice and Men'
June - 'Don...
January is Boy’s Life, February is Rebecca. No idea about March.[/QUOTE]
March sounds a lot like ‘Born of Man and Woman’ by Richard Matheson.
Sleepy Hollow could be mighty cool, although I recall the actual Washington Irving work as more jaunty and fun than chilling. If it is SH, I will wear a giant frowny face since there is no artist...
I'd be excited to see 'Elementals'. I missed the CP version and really loved what Suntup did with 'Blackwater'. Wont have to long to see what April's title actually is.
I think 'Legion' lines up closest with the clue - "Our second publication by this author, we cannot tell you what his name is."
“What is your name?” And he replied, “My name is Legion, because...
Think you've got May/June nailed. I'd guess 'Legion' for April.
I think Poe is the correct answer here, as the blurb indicates it's an American author.
January is almost certainly 'The Magus' by John Fowles.
I think the consensus is 'Zombie' by Joyce Carol Oates.
Jeffrey Alan Love is an inspired choice for the illustrations for Schindler's Ark. The stark haunting & foreboding quality his illustrations matches well the subject matter of the novel. I've been a...
Last one is Hannibal Rising I think[/QUOTE]
Yeah - that makes much more sense.
Guesses for next quarter:
Oct: Schindler's Ark - Thomas Keneally
Nov: Zombie - Joyce Carol Oates
Dec: Ania Ahlborn - ??
Yeah - suspect you're right, this fits better than 'The Devil Crept In'.
Agreed.
I’d guess ‘The Outsiders’ for July, and ‘The Devil Crept’ for August.
Really excited about 'Slaughterhouse Five' - if any numbered are available Saturday I'll buy one. The numbered edition tics all the boxes for me - great art, very classy & restrained binding design,...
Received mine today - looks nicer in person than it did in the mockups. Some cool touches in it - the binding details fit nicely with the book and I really like the endpapers.
I really like the illustrations for 'Dark Matter' - just fantastic. The style reminds me a little bit of Phil Hale.
Received my copy of 'Blood Meridian' today. I really like the appearance of the book, the starkness and texture of the boards makes it feel like some kind of unhallowed artifact. The binding itself...
Off topic - but another film that covers NYC during this time period is the little seen 'The Wolf Hour' from 2019. It's not a great movie (maybe not even a good movie), but I found it compelling...
Recently finished reading Suntup's edition of 'A Scanner Darkly'. While I'd read it previously I'd forgotten just how tragic the story is. I'm too young to relate to the drug culture that inspired...
