I don?t know if anyone else gives a ham-sandwich, but I?m reading ?the night torn mad w/ footsteps? (a little at a time, in-between) & I have found 2 typos so far (it?s ecco; HarperCollins Imprint, of course) & I was wondering if anyone had seen the originals; possibilities:
1) Buk made the typo & they left them in;
2) The typesetter made the typo & the editor(s) missed them;
3) Buk meant them to be wrong (I doubt it).
Anyhow, Black Sparrow seemed to have better proofing than ecco. In poetry-prose, it?s harder to find errors, admittedly, but I don?t think these were meant to be so. Anyone with originals (jpg, etc.) or other printings, help is appreciated. thanks,
