virago did okay covers of them in the 70's. i never even see those. must not have sold much here.

Virago still sells them, but only as print-on-demand, so they never make it to shops. And probably nobody buys them, either.

Yeah, I always intended to get the viragos if I saw them, but I never have seen them :( of course, once I do it will probably be 20 years before I actually get round to reading them. or at least the first 2 before losing momentum.

Seen a couple of the Viragos around but have never read them. Thomp was curious about them, I think, but I don't know if he actually read them.

Love imagining cover-quoter Nabokov's reaction to that cover

That is at least a Liartown fake, thank God.
