Hi,
My copy of "you get so alone" is bound the right way. It is a FIRST HB SIGNED. Yours is probably a binder's error. I bet that it would be very easy to do this if you are not paying attention.

Is this the lettered or Presentation?

It's a presentation copy.
But I seem to remember my previous HB of this title was also 'upside down'.
Oh well.

I have one of the 100 copy edition with the print bound in and it's labeled correctly. Bill's probably right about it being a error in the bindery... it's doubtful that this would be done intentionally.

that is one hell of a collection.

I almost creamed in my jeans when I saw that.
what a wonderful collection! I could look at it all day.

I just watched 'Born Into This' again and when I saw John Martins library I almost had the same reaction.
:eek:

Oh that doesn't count! He didn't have to pay for any of those! ;)

Interesting that he still buys the old magazine appearances and whatnot though. Seems like once you start, there is no end.

this thing upon me, crawling like a snake, its not death,
its an obsession with bukowski collecting.

it's not money
but cash will solve it's power
and as my pink hand
clicks a last desperate mouse
in my computer room
they will find me there
and never know
how a man
on my income
could afford
those books
