I also prefer Ellison in non-fiction, there’s something about his attitude that’s fascinating and endlessly entertaining… and I can’t believe he is not in library of America! You’d think he’d be the first sf author they would reprint!
You explained perfectly, that sensation, that connection with books. I feel that also. Even though we’re politically misaligned, I enjoy your videos because of your brilliance, your love of books and words. You are an intriguing character.
I think I recall reading that the Fletcher Pratt book was used by Harvey Kurtzman as a major reference for the Civil War special issues of EC Comics' TWO-FISTED TALES and FRONTLINE COMBAT.
Found your channel and very much enjoyed this episode. Sorry I missed Brattle when my partner and I were in Boston in December for four nights. We definitely walked all around there but not on that specific street. We did spend time (and money) in Commonwealth Books. Keep up the great content👍
Hope you put on your big boy pants and get out of the house for a good time tomorrow. Freida just might be wanting some alone time herself. Enjoy your weekend, whatever you decide to do. 😺✌️
I have _An Edge in My Voice_ in a 1996 hardcover that also includes Harlan Ellison’s _Over the Edge_ short story collection. The book is _Edgeworks 1,_ the first of four volumes of Ellison from White Wolf Publishing.
I hope with the reprint of the Dangerous Visions series, and the new Ellison’s greatest hits, that a lot of his various columns are reprinted, even if I disagree with him more than I agree with him.
Steve I am a Benjamin Franklin fan. If you don’t miss unhauling it I would love to have it. Of course I will pay you for it and the shipping. How do I go about sending my address to you? Thank you so much. Linda Wine.
