So I was at Barnes and Noble the other day... just browsing around. I came across Barnes and Noble's Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe... hard leather-bound book for $20! I had to get it. I also noticed they had other authors bound in the same way... Lewis Carroll, The Brothers Grimm, Bram Stoker, Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens, and a few others that escape me at the moment... They also have Wicked/Son of a Witch bound in the same way. I love hard-bound books, so I'll definitely be going back soon to get a copy of Wicked, Lewis Carroll's book and possibly Bram Stoker. Anyway! Does anyone see where I'm going with this? Would it not be disgustingly fantastic if B&N published all of HP Lovecrafts writings in this way? Its something I was thinking about ALL day yesterday. I would call someone and ask them about it, if I had the slightest clue who to call. What do you guys think?
Ia!

So I couldn't find an appropriate way to contact Barnes and Noble directly, so I emailed their current publisher, Sterling Publishing the following: -------------------------------------------- Hello, I recently purchased a copy of Barnes and Noble's leather-bound 'The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allen Poe,' and I quite enjoy the aesthetic appeal of the book. I noticed that there are other authors published in a similar manner, and I was wondering if Barnes and Noble has considered making a similar book featuring H.P. Lovecraft's works. I don't know if this is the proper way to go about submitting this idea, but the Barnes and Noble website didn't have a "contact us" link I could easily find, so I thought I'd email their publisher. I know for a fact that there is a HUGE Lovecraft fan base who would eat such a compilation up. Please do take this idea into consideration.
Sincerely,
Jordan -------------------------------------------- I think... emails from other fans of Lovecraft would help make this book a reality... so if you feel so inclined to write them as I have, here is the email:

Stoker would be a very good investment. I'm going to go look for it tomorrow. Read Dracula if you haven't before.
