See how many of those are new, not used, books. These booksellers are offering new POD editions from Gale or from mysterious unspecified "publishers." Maybe Gale editions aren't as bad as the execrable products of General Books, but I'm not risking fifteen or twenty bucks to find out.

Were I interested in buying one, I would follow [livejournal.com profile] icecreamempress's advice and spring for the University of Nebraska Press editions.

I would like to read the play, but my interest is not up to the $13.50 level. It is barely up to the "grumpily complain about the lack of free copies on your blog" level.

There's also the magic of Interlibrary Loan if I am interested enough. Yesterday I ILL'ed an account of a novel isotope-separation device penned by the founder of Fermilab.
