I wrote this post several weeks ago. In fact, I had scheduled several posts as a lead up to the fateful day when this book would get released. I had even considered finding 4 things to quickly write about so that I could have an entire week of posts about DFW for the lead in to the release of his final, posthumous novel.
And then the book was released on March 30 anyway. As I write this update, I’m about half way done. I’m not saying anything about it until I’m done, though. So, in the meantime, you can read my original post:
Today (tax day–although this year Tax Day is extended until the 18th) is the scheduled release date for The Pale King. Obviously I haven’t read the book yet. As I write this I, haven’t even received my copy yet.
I was planning on writing a special post for today, but after the last few weeks of build up, I think I’ll just let the book’s release speak for itself.
I’ve put aside all other reading for next week, but I’ve scheduled posts for the next week just in case (lots of short stories).
Happy reading.
