I looked at Kobo, was 8-9 or something. It came up in my amazon recommendations.
I have the odd Silverberg to go, too. Even a paper one. The last Planet Stories volume.
Just looked at that publisher's website now you mention it - and saw this :-
"Experiment Perilous: The 'Bug Jack Barron' Papers
by Norman Spinrad
Price: $0.99
Norman Spinrad describes the writing of his famous BUG JACK BARRON novel by answering three questions: "how did I come to write Bug Jack Barron? what urged me to do it? how do I hope to continue writing SF while bugging editors?" He goes on to explain the behind-the-scenes that went on with the book, which was banned in the UK. Originally one third of the booklet called "Experiment Perilous" with other contributions by Marion Zimmer Bradley and Alfred Bester, this "making of" offers great insights into the famed New Worlds era of science fiction as well as the publishing process, making it a must read for all readers and writers of science fiction."
Sounds interesting.
And Bug Jack Barron is weird - looking at some 2.99 etc. US books at Kobo - they were 2.78 in real money.
Bug Jack Barron 8.99 at Amazon/Reanimus Press website - 9.28 Kobo. Bizarre.
