That’s not the poem though

It's the special thingy enclosed by Faber and Faber after mistakenly advertising limited edition copies through their own site.

Received my offering from Faber and Faber. The corner of my book is slightly bent due to posting in a poly bag bubble wrap thing. The same postcard was included (let's face it it's a postcard - it may be an artisan postcard hand knitted by Neil, but how can we ever really know!?)

Curls and boys...

Has anyone received their Faber complimentary copy with letterpress thing?

Not yet, I've had the day off today so haven't missed any potential deliveries!

Hand bound and signed by THE THE author?!

And he signed that 505 times?
Also, it seems to imply that Neil bound the books himself...

Thanks for this. You'll find the proofreading thread popping up again!

Can anyone with a limited edition copy confirm that they've basically paid an extra £60 for a shiny cardboard cover for the book to go in? Limited to only 500 copies Each copy numbered and signed by Neil Tennant Hand sewn, with white gloss paper-covered boards Reflective silver paper endpapers Silv...

Faber and Faber is clearly the publishing equivalent of EMI. Hello there— I'm afraid I'm writing with bad news. You recently ordered a copy of a special edition of Neil Tennant's One Hundred Lyrics and a Poem (9780571351572) from faber.co.uk. But we made a mistake. The particular version of the boo...

Did anyone place an order on the faber&faber website for the special edition?....i did on 28th august,order was received with email confirmation,never heard anything since then,started to wonder why as my credit card hadn't been charged,so i phoned last week and the guy said money will be taken upo...

Sorry, this is going to sound really thick - I had the impression that Neil was going to do a book signing too last night. - Did he? Also, no one has mentioned Neil's book. Is it any good etc? :?: I should have said to those who went - I hope you had a lovely time. It seems that the signing itself ...

I got tickets, don't know what to expect. I've bought one too. I saw Trevor's supergroup "The Producers" a few years ago now at Barfly. He likes playing covers of the hits with which he's associated either as a player or producer! Expect Slave to the Rhythm, Two Tribes and Video Killed the Radio St...
