It's a wrap (another step)

OK, done with the latest polish, I just ordered copies for myself and the publisher, what in the old days would have been called galley proofs. If all goes well, one more small step and we're done.

It came in at 212 pages, starting this revision at 228 pages. I added 3 vignettes and cut 3 vignettes. I know it's much stronger now. I don't know if it's as strong as it can be.  But I will soon enough.

Whew. I really do love this book. I don't expect a big audience for it, however. Whenever I love something, like the Mahagonny opera, like the novels of Josephine Hart, only a few agree with me. Why should this be any different?
