Meanwhile, you can order the book through any good bookshop. It's very popular, I know, because my local library never has it on the shelf, but there's always a copy reserved and waiting to be collected. If you're keen to read the book but you don't want the expense of acquiring your own personal copy, you can ask your library to get one in.
