The New Idler Arrives

16 June 2009

The new Idler arrived from Biddles the printer today. This was a few days later than I’d hoped. UK subscribers and all those who pre-ordered the book (for which many thanks) should get their copies early next week.

Retail copies also arrived at our distributor, Central Books, and so in a few days you will be able to buy or order it from your local bookshop. Or you can buy it direct from us by clicking on the button on the right. The book is very heavy and so the postage and packing is now £3.00.

Any retail outlet who would like to stock the new Idler can order copies from Central Books on 0845 4589911.
