Trib On Dalkey Archive

 

The Chicago Tribune has a nice piece on Dalkey Archive Press:

In the past, Dalkey was known chiefly for its reprints of books that had gone out of print. But in the past five years, Riker notes, the company has begun to publish more original work, and now about 70 percent of Dalkey’s list is original. “All this good stuff kept coming to us,” he says.

Sorry to leave a comment on an old post, Bud, but I’m getting ready to buy the Shorter OED and wanted to thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Fantastic and terrifying.

It’s exciting to watch how literature is beginning to utilize more diverse mediums– the videos, the internet, hyper-texting etc.  But probably what’s most exciting, and will end up being the main contribution to literature, is when e-books become the norm and all of these resources can be incorporated into the actual book, as opposed to the book being one thing and what goes on in the internet another.  It will all be rolled into the actual ‘text’.  Very exciting.
