Black Postcards paperback edition from Penguin

April 14, 2009

Fedex woke me up early last week, delivering a box from Penguin – the paperback edition of my book had arrived! The paperback looks great; it has that distinguished Penguin logo right on the front, along with a quote from Liz Phair’s review in the New York Times Book Review: “Fast paced and memorable, peopled with characters you could only find in the music industry. . .  It’s as if a curtain were brushed aside and we all got to go backstage.” It almost makes me want to read it myself.

The book is officially available May 5, and it’s a whole lot cheaper than the hardcover. You can get pre-order from Amazon for $10.88.

I will be doing a couple of readings for the book locally:

May 8 – the paperback release party at Book Court in Brooklyn
June 17 – at the Cakeshop in Manhattan, with Nick Flynn and Chuck Klosterman
