Out-of-print

This is encouraging news (second item). I was speaking with someone about this very thing a night or two back. It’s depressing to go out of print, but at least there’s the chance someone might come looking for you.

According to the BookFinder Report, which monitors the most sought-after out-of-print books, ‘98 to 99 per cent of all books ever published are now out of print.’

Titles that American readers most wanted to get their hands on last year include: The Bed Book by Sylvia Plath, The Mint by T. E. Lawrence, The Gremlins by Roald Dahl, Myra Breckenridge by Gore Vidal, The Science of Life by H. G. Wells and Sex by Madonna.

Nah, anything that has Madonna in it is still depressing.

    1. Haven’t these book collectors heard of http://www.abebooks.com?

    2. Why in God’s name would anyone want to buy Madonna’s Sex? I read that book when it came out. It’s a piece of crap.
