Nevermind. I just bought it on amazon.it for 7.80 euros, and it looks great layout wise. Alex, you're a wiz.

Great. The Kindle in the US is $9.99, which is less than the print (as it should be, but often isn't). Glad to hear the formatting is fine, since so many poetry books are sloppily Kindle-ized.
The Kindle sample, by the way, doesn't give any poems, so I couldn't inspect the formatting on my own. Were it not for this thread, I might have hesitated to buy. But now it's a go!

Love love love love it! Such vitality, Aaron - and a thrill to meet some of the poems you workshopped here.
It's a real page turner! I read it without stopping - the energy of the language propels one through the pages!
Best of luck with it, Aaron!!

Congrats, Aaron. Very well designed cover. And I wasn't familiar with Diana Der-Hovanessian's work, so I've just spent a few enjoyable moments browsing around her site.
Here's hoping this one will be a bestseller!
Thanks,
Bill

Thanks again, all, for sharing in my excitement. Cally, I have a feeling that at least a phrase or two of yours make it into Dave's blurb--thanks so much.
Bill, we need to get you back up here to NYC to read again.
And, Nemo, I will see you soon--I'll be getting out more often.
Thanks, thanks, my friends.

Aaron,
I am shocked, shocked, that you think Cally has any influence whatsoever on my blurbing! Well, a tweak here and there...
But I swear to all the dying gods that "pussycat poet" was my own phrase, owing only to your cosmic title and nothing else. But she does love the book, and we talked about it considerably. I love it too.
If Cally influenced me in other ways, well, what can a poor besotted man living with an Ozzie Sappho be expected to do????? The muse is the muse is the muse...
Dave
