300 Pounds

My book, not my book on Lorca but my other book, will be available on an open access site at something called JISC in the UK. This is good for me, since I get a small sum of money and also get more readers for my book, which was priced out of the range of any normal academic. I'll let you know when it's up there.

The good thing is that this book was overshadowed by my Lorca book, so this allows the playing field to be leveled a bit. Even in my own mind, I was not giving myself as much credit for this book, which included some really kick-ass studies of contemporary Spanish poetry. Simply because the same year I kicked a little more ass in another book.

I'm reading the book right now and I have to say that I think you've been selling it a little short by referring to it as "the other book."

It's a very important book, and I wish I'd had it available to me before I spouted idiocies about poetry during my comprehensive exams. :-)

it was a bit overshadowed by the Lorca book, and both appeared the same year. I wish it could be recognized as significant in its own right, but it is destined to be the other book .
