Usually it is about 12-18 months to go from hardcover to paperback, it seems. If you NEED to read it, do what I did: go to the library. Or if you read fast enough, go to a bookstore and sit and read it there. I have a friend who is famous for this.
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.
