Why ?

>>8498985

Scarcity and memes.

>>8498985
Because people will actually pay that much. I found a copy at a library booksale in meh condition and sold it for $75

>>8498992
But what if I actually want to read it ?

>>8498998
Look for it at your library.

>>8499007
But I live in the middle of nowhere.

Y? Because it's the 23rd letter of the alphabet! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHABAHAHAHAHAHA

>>8498998
Just check your library or interlibrary loan if you have the option.

>>8499009

Then use the money you save by living in the middle of nowhere where housing and food is cheap to buy a copy and have it shipped to you.

>>8499013
But I'm unemployed.

>>8499012
I already checked the library for my whole region and it isn't there.

>>8499020

Then find something else to read.

>>8499020
if you're poor you literally cannot be /lit/

that's just the truth of the matter bucko

Well I did spend over $100 on David Tibet's (almost) complete poems, but the thing with this one is that I don't know whether I'll like it. I'm not spending $100 on a bet but I still feel like it might be a very good book. Why hasn't it been republished ?

>>8499026
I'm reading Ficciones and The Tunnel (which was also kind of pricey), but I'd still like to see what this one's all about sometime in the near future.

>>8499033
author doesnt want it republished

>>8499046
Why not ? Does he not like it ?

>>8498998
Libgen

I prefer print too, but if it's this overpriced I'm not buying a physical copy.

>>8499049
no clue

>>8499073
>A third print edition was announced by McElroy in March 2015, originally intended to be released in the spring of that year.

>>8499079
yea and now its sept 2016 so

People actually spend $100 and don't even attempt to read it?

>>8498985
I swear I will read this one day

you can get this at bookzz right now for free

>>8499094
Dzanc said that it would more than likely end up being 2017 at the earliest. Maybe we should just send them a bunch of polite email or tweets just to show them that it will sell.

>>8498998
Just pirate it and use an ereader

It's what I do for everything

>>8499033
i have that david tibet book too, friend.
definitely not worth the money.

>>8499219
The book is full of memes. /lit/ needs to be able to access it.

>>8499309
I wasn't disappointed but maybe I'm just a faggot

>>8499033
How are his poems?

>>8499033
You can always sell it again afterwords.

>>8500304
He's, in my opinion, the best poet currently alive (if that means anything these days).

>>8500354
Probably, but it might not be that easy.

>>8500380
Would you mind posting a poem of his?

I have a copy -- cost me 175 but what can I do you know? I'm not a big fan of ereaders and I live in Italy.

>>8500380
Davit Tibet, known from having "radical" jumpscares in songs and mumbling some Lovecraft imitation is the best poet alive
God just let it end.

>>8501420
I wouldn't know which one to post. There are too many.

>>8501488
Do you ever read your posts before submitting them or do you just type nonsense all day ?

>>8498998
Check worldcat.org, or wait for the mid-year lull when the price drops.

>>8500380
Irc channel bookz in undernet. It ought to be there

>>8503105
Probably is, and I'll probably end up using it, but it's just a shame to have to read such a long book on my computer screen. I'll probably give up just because of how unpleasant that'll be/
