Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Maximilian. Here’s a link to his obituary in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: http://www.jsonline.com/news/obituaries/whitehead-didnt-fear-our-dark-side-a74ot03-144484725.html

I was shocked to learn of Neil’s passing. For years we had corresponded, he reviewed my work, I over-quoted his, we collaborated in some really amazing, carnivalesque adventures online, we exchanged papers, and he was an excellent critic. I cannot begin to express how much of a difference his absence will make, let alone for his family, and for those who worked closely with him. This is a huge loss, for all of us.

Thanks for your comment, Ben. It’s a complex (and interesting) dilemma with no easy answers. That said, I think there’s a chance that the onslaught of digital media will, in a way, make collectable books even more collectable. I view the two technologies as complimentary – I also own a Kindle, but maintain several book collections. Both eBooks and physical books serve different needs and wants – the one doesn’t necessarily need to replace the other.

I enjoyed your interview with Norman Kane about his history in book collecting. I would be most interested in your perspective on the “future” of book collecting and the impact that electronic books will have on this activity. I recently purchased a Kindle eReader and realized that, although I really enjoy the convenience, there is no longer a physical book to hold, to have signed by the author, to collect or eventually sell to other collectors. What will technology do to the book collecting trade?
