Nathan Edwin Westlake (b. 10/21/15) isn’t sure what to make of, well, really anything.
It has taken several months to plow through all the material for the most recent page updates, mainly due to the addition of the most recent, and probably last, of Don’s grandchildren (right). But also because it’s just a lot of material. There are still several non-fiction works to curate and transcribe, which will be forthcoming in the next update, hopefully sometime in the next month or so.
Pièces Détachées (France) (1981)
This update includes newly uploaded images on 60 book pages, the discovery of a collection of DEW short stories first published in France and the unearthing of the original publications for ten short stories and three non-fiction pieces. Four short stories were transcribed for reprinting here, as well as two pieces of short non-fiction. The full list of new and updated pages is below.
Regular visitors might notice the recent addition of short teaser excerpts and/or blurbs on the book pages. I intend to eventually include a short burst of copy on every book and story page. While I have endeavored to make selections that reflect Don’s style and/or the tenor of the story, DEW fans are invited to send emails or comments with suggestions to improve those selections.
As with the bibliography page, an asterisk next to a title means you can read the piece on this site (in part or in full). Sometimes that means it has been transcribed, other times it means the piece can be read by viewing the hi-resolution images of the original publication. Happy reading!
