Today I ordered copies for my store of TITUS AWAKES from Overlook Press [US $24.95, 28 April 2011, 224 pp].
It appears the only UK edition will be a paperback from Random House/Vintage [7 July 2011]. I would think this would be a bigger deal, especially in the UK. Can someone clue me in? --Jack Rems, Dark Carnival Bookstore, Berkeley, CA, USA jack@darkcarnival.com

I'd like to ask you a question about whether the Peakes knew Keith Emerson, who also lived on Drayton Gardens at the same time - Can you offer any insight ?
Where can I email you about this ?
