Hi Arni,
Spring Church Book Company is a mail order poetry store! She gets
anything in print, very accommodating. (She's even stocking my novel --
which is very, very accommodatiing!) She wraps the books very carefully.
Books are discounted and you only have to pay tax if you live in
Pennsylvania. No shipping if the order is over $40, I think. However,
that's not likely to be true for Iceland! It's run by a lovely woman named
Britt Horner. No web site, though.

Congratulations, Rebecca!
I agree entirely with your point about the book as a material thing which,
however pleasant to hold in your hands as an item, removes you from your
task. Felt exactly the same about my Wiliam Carlos Williams, after two
decades of inhabiting his poetry and trying to sell it to this miniscule
'market'. I'll most definitely be ordering this Vallejo/Seiferle title! But
very short of money just now, I'll hang on for a while. Btw. what's 'Spring
Church'? Sounds like something I should know about.
Love
Árni
