Longreader, you seem to be referring to Keith418's relatively mild expression of frustration as the "whining." Actually, Keith (who I know for a fact owns many Ex Occidente books) is a member of long standing, unlike yourself, who has done plenty for this site and it should go without saying that he's entitled to express his opinion here without being insulted.

I think there has been some misunderstanding of tone in some recent posts, a common risk with forum posts. I, for one, wasn't upset by Keith's post about my reviews as I don't sense he meant it to be upsetting.
I hope things can now settle down a bit here.

Thank you, Mr. Lewis.
And just to be clear, and to get back to the subject of the thread, I think Mr. Ghetu is an inspired, original and fearless publisher. If I'd never heard of Ex Occidente Press, my reading life would be much, much poorer and I (for good or ill) may never have published a word. There's nothing I feel compelled to say here about Ex Occidente's past business record. And Dan, I of course wish you long life and abundant works.

What is your level of understanding American English? This is under the Ex Occidente Press heading only because that is where the complaints were made about Des having copies of books before others might.

Thank you. I just wanted to understand what you meant.

I will ignore your question as to my level of understanding of the English language; as I did fail to point out that your post merely made little or no sense to me.

I think many would agree: Des' RTRs are not to be missed.

I do need to report that Dan did refund one of the books I ordered from him and never got, and he promised to refund the other two shortly. If I ever get the books from him, I will apologize to him and mention it here, as well as post pictures.

The limbo-lingering Disagreeable Tales from Leon Bloy is now forthcoming from Wakefield Press, along with numerous other morbid and fantastic delights over the coming year.

Forthcoming

Always nice to receive a package with that nice red tape saying Fragile! from Germany. :-)
I received my lettered "R" of Descended Suns Resuscitate. Do I need to say it's beautiful? My only concern is that I'll have to protect those little crystals to not scratch the books that are next to it. :-)

Thanks to Jonas and Dan!

Dear fellows,

I wrote this short review about the extraordinary "Letters from Oblivion" by Andrew Condous. I hope you enjoy.

I noticed that on the Zagava books website, Infra Noir is (at last) available for pre-order.
