My Dad and I both have this edition. The cover depicts the invading alien “Zebra” which is also Christ and beams data into the brain of Horselover Fat (German translation of the name Philip K Dick) by way of a pink laser so that he can save his son from an undetected genetic birth defect. True story y’all.

"The Lathe of Heaven" by Ursula LeGuin
The cover on the left is the 1973 first printing by Avon Books. The one on the right is from the same year but is the sixth printing. I think I prefer the one on the right. I purchased the one on the right at a Half Price Books in Austin (probably the one on Lamar) and I found the one on the left on my Dad’s bookshelf. “The Lathe of Heaven” is LeGuin’s tribute to Philip K. Dick. It’s been made into several movies, some of which I’ve seen.

This book is quite possibly the weirdest story that I have ever read. In terms of mystic sf journies, I’m sure that it beats CS Lewis’ trilogy (which I’ve never read). This is my Dad’s copy from 1968. Its falling apart but the cover is way better than all the newer editions that I’ve seen on Half Price Books shelves. Also, David Lindsay died in his late 20s / early 30s from tooth decay. The bacteria from an untreated cavity eventually infected his heart. So go brush your teeth right now.

The Return of the Miizzzard
The Miizzzard has (as some of you may be aware)
been lost in the swamp for several months now.
At 7:11 p.m. on November 7th, 2007, the Miizzzard will make his triumphant return to the A7X! Be there* by 7 p.m. to witness this event, for he will return precisely at 7:11 p.m.!
*The Miizzzard will roll into Austin at 7:11 p.m. on Alexander St., between MLK & Manor (this street connects to the Creative Research Lab / Flatbed Press parking lot on its east side) and will emerge from his quasi-space vehicle at the southern end of the street, where there will be a sign proclaiming “The Miizzzard Returns!” This event is in no way affiliated with the Creative Research Lab or Flatbed Press.
