may I have a week off?

We pre-ordered this big, fat, wonderful publication and it arrived
yesterday with our thin little chronny. My lord ~ is the printed word
back in style? I heard on the news that it sold out yesterday. It is a
McSweeney (Dave Eggers) production filled with words and photos
and graphic novel style comics. Maybe 14 sections. Here is a lovely
poem I found in the Panorama Book Review section:

DOVE IN VENICE

In this city, sinkng like the old ark,
a dove sits on one egg on the windowsill.
No nest, no olive branch, only one egg rolling
on a stone still shile she flutters off to St. Mark's.

Jean Janzen
