I heard him read it aloud at UCLA some 50 years ago. Funny and dynamic guy. Still have the original copy. Hope it gets released.

The last I heard, JM (Babylon 5) Straczynski, the executor of Ellison's estate, had pledged to preserve Ellison's house and make all of his work available in new editions. Clearly it's taking some time, and existing contracts and licenses may have lapsed.

I wonder if the fact that Ellison copyrighted his own name has made it harder?

I think many things Harlan Ellison did in his lifetime made Harlan Ellison's life harder, so why should this be any different?

Oh man, I loved that story! I did an essay comparing and contrasting it with Dalton Trumbo's "Johnny Got His Gun" and the professor loved it. Boy that was a long time ago.

Hi there. Your post would be better asked in our Simple Questions thread. It helps us keep the main subreddit focused around broader discussion rather topics which only apply to an individual. Thank you!
