I've almost completed work on a bibliography of the Paris Olympia Press -- the outfit that first published "Lolita", "The Ginger Man", "Naked Lunch" &c. -- and I'm anticipating trouble in finding a publisher for such an arcane book. Advice as to likely publishers would be welcome. Alternatively, the notion of publishing it myself is becoming increasingly attractive. Producing camera-ready copy is no problem with Microsoft Word for Windows; however, printing it out in such a way that the pages print two to a sheet in landscape format with the page numbers correctly sequenced for gatherings of 4, 8 or 16 leaves is very definitely a problem. I've had some modest success with Microsoft Publisher, but only with brief pamphlets. The Olympia Press project requires something with a bit more horse power. Has anyone had experience dealing with sort of thing? -- ********************************** " 'Tis very warm weather when Patrick Kearney * one's in bed.'
