I want this edition of 1984...
    #8601902 -

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0141036141/downandoutint-21

But I can only find it on the UK amazon site, and I'm in bloody California, the shipping price would make it a ripoff.

If anyone sees this available from a US source I'd be thankful for a heads-up. That's probably the best cover art I've seen for the book.

I sure do.

It's rare I buy a book and add it to my collection rather than visit a library, so I might as well get one that I really like the looks of.

Then again, this one isn't too bad an alternative, but I've got my heart set on the one I already linked to. God damn if they weren't expecting to charge me 7 pounds just to deliver the damn thing. That's a fair number of USD for a goddamn paperback.

I don't believe in cops, bosses, or politicians. Some call that anarchism. I call it having a fucking heart that beats.

That one is pretty cool, yeah... it was one of the choices I was going to go with if I couldn't get the one I was looking for at a reasonable price.

Something about paying just shy of $22 for a paperback would make me go apeshit... so I'm likely to get that one instead, in fact.

I really wish GBP would crash just so I could snag the book at a steal from Amazon UK... yes I did just say that. Am I a callous bastard or just full of crap? You decide...

After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action.  If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it.  - Ernest Hemingway

If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it.  In the law courts, in business, in government.  There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent.    -Cormac MacCarthy

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.  - Aeschylus
