I got a copy of The Seven Deadly Virtues from the publisher yesterday and I’m really excited by it. Everything about it, from the embossing on the dust jacket to the textured endsheets, is just beautiful. It’s the kind of lovely physical artifact that you’ll want to own, I think.
If you’re in D.C., we’re having a little event for the book at AEI on Tuesday, October 28. It’s not a party, but there will be copious amounts of alcohol, followed by a little debate between Jonah Goldberg, P. J. O’Rourke, Rob Long, Christine Rosen, and James Lileks. It’ll be kind of like a King of the Ring tournament for the virtues. Or maybe a Survivor Series for the virtues. I haven’t figured out all the details yet.
But if you’re around, you should come. It’s free, it’ll be fun, and it’ll give you the chance to get your copy of 7DeadlyV signed by almost all of the authors.
You can register here.
Hope to see you there.

The fact that you’re touting a book as a “physical artifact” without reference to the actual text speaks volumes. No, don’t open it, you’ll only be disappointed.
There is not enough alcohol on the planet for me to get through the advertised “debate” which I suspect will be a horrid striving for who can shriek “AMIRITE?!” louder.
Oh, I’ve seen you’ve farted out a piece on Ebola. Gotta run.
