Richard's comment about not seeing any Faulkner made me laugh. Yesterday at a Friends of the Library book sale, I picked up a copy of Faulkner's Pylon and when I got home I wondered why. Now I know. It was a Signet 50 cents book from 1958 in a movie tie-in issue. The movie was The Tarnished Angels with Rock Hudson, Robert Stack, Jack Carson and Dorothy Malone and Rock and Dorothy are on the back cover. Think I'll go back to the sale today as everything is 50% off.Kent Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834261948994921554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401124973760279564.post-11807545485207188692013-10-27T13:13:42.464-04:002013-10-27T13:13:42.464-04:00Richard, By a smaller picture, Bill is preventing ...Richard, By a smaller picture, Bill is preventing book ninjas from raiding his house.
