It seems somehow entirely fitting in the circs that I was sold (via Amazon) a publisher's advance copy* which, contrary to its back-cover braggadocio, does not in fact include (all the) 'Rare and striking portraits of each writer' or 'A thorough index for the reader's convenience.'**
It does however, come tricked out with 'Numbered pages'.

* Or was I?
** Which is a shame as I suspect this might have been a doozy.
Some might say, 'Well, that's what you get for buying from Amazon,' but I would not join that chorus.
