a few months ago i got all exited while snooping around amazon. i found out that chuck palahniuk, whose name i now can spell without having to double-check – and who, hell yes, is one of my favorite writers – will be publishing not 1 but 2 books this year.
thats right TWO.
i of course pre-ordered both of them that very instant.
one of them was set to be released in june, and got here soon after – its wolfed down already; the other was to be released in early august and it came in the post yesterday.
well guess what… its the same book!
different title – one is called stranger than fiction the other nonfiction – same book.
i guess its an american vs british release issue.
but man, somebody should have told me, mannnn…
well, i finally have found one argument why online book shopping is worse than rl book shooping: a real sales person in a real book store might have pointed this out to me, i assume… or at least leafing through the real book would have…
Man that sucks, stuff like that really illustrates the flaws in automated systems doesn’t it?…bummer.
exactly right. but, to look on the bright side, i now have a present ready for somebody’s upcoming birthday. anyone?
haha…every cloud has a silver lining!..
P.S. Thanx for the linkage 🙂
dude, but of course, the linkage is as much for me as for anyone really. sometimes i think my blog is mostly my launch pad to the web…
