Re: "Cold to the Touch" by Simon Strantzas
Thanks, Matt, and as Des suggests the book is arriving in hands already, starting in England and no doubt will radiate out from there.
I anxious to hear its reception! | |||||||||||

Re: "Cold to the Touch" by Simon Strantzas
Well, it was genuinely strange. A man in the pouring rain (in a hood) handed it to me, muttering something, and then walked off into the distance. I assumed it was the postman. But the postman came later with something else.

Re: "Cold to the Touch" by Simon Strantzas
My copy just arrived! Like all Tartarus Press books, the quality is top shelf. It's a great looking book. Congrats again, Simon. This book will probably outlast us all.

Re: "Cold to the Touch" by Simon Strantzas
I'm very pleased you enjoyed the book, Des. I hope "Here's to the Good Life" didn't damper your enthusiasm for imbibing!

Re: "Cold to the Touch" by Simon Strantzas
Just spotted this review of Simon's book:
http://grimreviews.blogspot.com/2009/10/simon-strantzas-cold-to-touch-reviewed.html I don't know who writes the GRIM REVIEWS blog but it is an excellent blog I look at all the time. It was stated, however, on the blog earlier that he or she is one of the 24 authors who has a story in CERN ZOO! | |||||||||||
