I noticed the blurb on the inside front flap of Tom Robbins's newest book
as well. Sounds like our boy's been busy reading.

On a related note, I wouldn't worry about HOUSE OF LEAVES not going
through another printing...if the dusty stack of copies at the local B&N
is any indication, it will sell like hotcakes once it's remaindered. I
don't think the Harry Potter crowd is gonna drop $28.95 on this one in
paperback any time soon.
