Review Haiku, now in a book
Five hundred movies
Briefly reviewed in haiku
Bite-sized for film fans
I finally did it. The first 500 reviews have been put in a book and self-published as an e-book through Lulu. Review Haiku, Volume 1 contains reviews from 1941 to Zero Woman: Dangerous Game and all the Review Haiku posted from February 2007 to December 17, 2009.
You can get your copy of the e-book here.
Yes, it’s $6.99, but in addition to the five hundred Review Haiku, there are also thirty-eight pages where the films are indexed by director. This is pretty handy if you want to find out what other films that they’ve directed and I’ve reviewed on this site. The price is sort of a compromise. It’s affordable for most and it’s a PDF file that can be read on just about anything. The e-book can be read on multiple devices by buying just one copy. If you’ve got an e-book reader, or a similar device, you can read the bite-sized reviews just about anywhere. Waiting in line at the grocery store? Read. On the train? Read. In the bathroom? Read.
Now that Volume 1 is out, Volume 2 should be out when I have enough haiku for it. At the current rate, this will probably be late 2010 or early 2011. I’m looking into doing a dead-tree version, so people can buy them in bookstores, but 500+ pages is a lot of paper. That means the price would be pretty high, so I’ll have to think about it.
