A sale a year


I seem to sell about one copy of The Seagull Hyperdrama a year. The buyer is usually very enthusiastic about it, as was the college professor this afternoon who just ordered it and was having some download problems which I helped her with. She has an interesting motivation for buying it (I asked: when so few do, you get curious why): she's teaching the Chekhov play and thinks the hyperdrama will help her think through the subplots and characters. Of course, it's my interpretation of what happens off the Chekhovian stage. "It's incredible work," she wrote, and when you sell only a CD a year, those are sweet words ha ha. But I always thought it was incredible work, if for a worldwide audience of about 10.
