The library feels like it should be illegal somehow. It's SO GOOD.
I'm shocked they're still legal.
Give them time
There would be SUCH a revolt from authors if publishers tried to do something to legislate libraries away that I doubt any new books would be released for decades.
Oh no. Everyone knows The Party fears a revolt of academics and intellectuals more than anything. My man, they're always the first ones to go.
"You can judge the degree of civilization by looking at who is imprisoned" / Dostojevskij
Who's talking about imprisonment? I'm talking about another writer's strike, leaving publishers with nothing to publish for months or years. With their margins already razor-thin, they have to know that they'd just be done if they tried any funny business.
