The self publishing: Brilliant. The publishing McSweeney�s in Iceland due to lower printing costs: Brilliant. The Believer, an unlikely, yet successful, crossbreed of celebrity/cerebral output: Brilliant! The support he has given a slew of new writers & the Valencia project: Brilliant.

Credit, this man deserves (& receives by the truckload, am sure). But re-publishing his novel / as an exclusive online purchase/ same novel with new parts & pictures ( the white Broncos inserted in the first edition were bad enough)

,

o, c�mon! it is horribly self-indulgent .

There are Two Ways To Look at This.

One. Shell out another $26 for a Later Edition of Novel you already Own. (Consider List of Books you would like to Own & know this is no small price. )

Two. Consider the $48 a small investment. Dave Eggers is assuring (& secret source says: he cares a Great Deal about Books as Rare Objects) that his latest output will be Valuable One Day. (Small run, odd editions, author as Publisher = full control of output. Can you spell $$$$$$$$. )

Dear Dave Eggers,

I love you but you�re such a P U N K!

Yrs Truly,
