Hmm.. sounds a bit interesting.. also, since I work in a library, have grown up in libraries, and am currently in library school, when I saw the bit about not being able to find Kreutzer Sonata Bearing Fruit my mind immediately thought "Aha! A challenge!!" So, in the last fifteen minutes have located two copies with the help of my searching skills. That's two copies, in the ENTIRE COUNTRY. There may be a couple other copies hidden away in some basement of a library (I really have no doubt about that at all) but I have located and requested a copy through the ILL service at my library. It seems to be part of a special collection so we shall see if it comes through. In the mean time, I can read The Kreutzer Sonata.
small insight to what might be in Kreutzer Sonata Bearing Fruit:
I went searching for anything about it on Google. As you can imagine alot of hits for just Kreutzer Sonata and about ninety percent were the last bit at the end of the story saying to read Kreutzer Sonata Bearing Fruit. But there was a two sentence review in a "Catholic World" Journal in an article about new books. They were not impressed it seems:
"Concerning Kreutzer Sonata Bearing Fruit, by Pauline Grayson, for which the publisher, J. S. Ogilvie (New York), begs "careful reading and fearless criticism," we have only to say that it does not seem to call for either. In writing it the authoress has somehow missed the woman's natural point of view without getting at the man's."
That's litterally it, that's all they wrote. After that, they start a new paragraph and move right along to another person. Now I'm really curious as to what this person did. Still waiting on ILL to get back to me.
Here's hoping it doesn't. In our system it won't let you request if they can't go out. Well, it'll let you request but then a message will come up to deny.
Problem with this is the ILL system doesn't work quite like that. GIL Express works like that and if you can't get the book it will pop up with a message saying you can't. ILL involves a form you send to a person and they do all the contacting and such to try to get it. Looked at the progress of the request and they're waiting for a reply.
Ah, gotcha. That's frustrating. :( I suddenly feel very happy to have our ILL system. It's a direct contact with the source and the loan info is stored in the system.
Here's hoping you get it! (unless it was one of the ones at OSU, then :(:(:()
:-P
