Luke Skywalker 1,799 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 When we 1st spoke about this book here, i think i sent him a message too. And said he was looking to print it in Spain but had not yet found an editor. (F**K you Spanish editorials!)That was some years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I had no idea there was a book about JW. Sweet!!Is it a biography, or just notes about his compositions?To bad it won't have anything about Harry Potter, A.I., Catch Me If You Can, Geisha, the last 2 Star Wars prequels, or the Terminal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferper 0 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I contacted the author about two years ago, and since then I tried to get a Chilean contact that could buy the book. When I contacted him, he said that there were still copies at La Feria Chilena del Libro (Chilean's Book Fair), specially at the Calle Huerfanos (Orphan's Street) near McIver corner.A friend just went there last month and couldn't find it. But he was only one day at Santiago so maybe someone with more time or that live in the city might still find it, even a used copy.The same writer is working on a book on Jerry Goldsmith. Let's hope that there is a reprint soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
