P Blurbs

[jbloocher at gmail.com]

Interesting Keith. I haven’t read this, but I shall now order the e-book. The only blurbed book I have read is Stone Junction, which I really enjoyed (I know this feeling isn’t universal among our Pynchonista Pals). In fact I ended up with multiple copies entirely due to family members buying me copies because of the Pynchon blurb.

Anyway, I’m interested to hear of other blurbed books and shall get the Emily Barton one now.

Apologies for using blurb as a verb. My brain is fried.

All the best
