Crowley does Byron

[yendi]

Dammit, no one wrote me a memo letting me know that John Crowley had a new book out! And I love the concept of Lord Byron's Novel: The Evening Land: Lord Byron secretly did manage to write a full novel based on that famous night of storytelling at Villa Diodati. The fictional novel (featuring zombies!) also contains footnotes by Byron's mathematician daughter.

Crowley's one of about three people I think could pull this off (Tim Powers and John Ford being the other two).

Shit. Last thing I need to find out when I'm beyond broke is that Crowley has a new book out. It's just not fair, I tell you!

*nod* My sentiments exactly.

Hmph, I did too post about it. So there. Neener. Good stuff, too.

Yeah, but did you send a memo?

[murnkay.livejournal.com]

Uhm... well... didn't you get a copy of that memo, Peter? Mmmm... I'll send you another copy.

If you call the toll-free number I posted earlier, there's an option for "did you get that thing I sent you?"
