Re: Colonel Sun
I saw a hardcover of Colonel Sun today, you know with the Dali inspired dust jacket...
why I report this to yall:
That hardcover edition has a handdrawn map as the endpapers, showing the series of islands off the coast of Athens, with a detailed inset of the fictional island of Vrakonisi.
Why would this map not be included in the paperbacks? it would certainly help to make sense of the various characters movements over the island (which Amis describes in detail but is still confusing).
Like I'm sure I've never seen an edition of Tolkien without the maps. These sort of supplements are an essential part of the text!
I wonder Amis' map has been scanned and uploaded on line anywhere?
