I am not, unfortunately, going to budge on the "no DRM" rule for ebooks, and it's unlikely I'll track down hard copy of an unfamiliar author. (I don't like reading paper anymore. There are authors I know I love whom I have to read on paper; I'm trying to avoid adding to that list.)

I've only read him in paper...did not think to search for ebook (and, yes, my
Infinite Jest is a mighty tree-brick in size). I would have sent you
...Hideous Men if you hadn't that necessity (which I empathize with. I'm now trying to avoid pbooks myself).
I do hope you like what you read. He was one of those "Remember, this is why you read, Marc" authors for me. And eventually they'll all meet your no-DRM requirements, right? Right?!
Cheers,
Marc
