Talk:Song of Susannah
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is the image from the paperback version of the book, or from a country other than the US, because it's not the same as my hardcover cover. It should be noted what edition that image is from. Lachatdelarue (talk) 7 July 2005 14:51 (UTC)
- Thats the cover we got on the hardcovers here in Canada; i'm not sure if it appeared elsewhere as well. Morphine 15:23, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
I started cleaning up this article (and will continue to, over the next little while) and adding to it in the context of the other books in the series. Much relevant info seems to be omitted in the original version, almost as if the author was unaware of the other books in the series. Example, there's no mention of Eddie and Roland's fateful visit to Calvin Tower and Aaron Deepneau's hiding hole in Maine, where they actually purchase, and obtain a sort of deed to the vacant lot containing the rose, nor any mention of how Tower inherited the lot from an ancestor who seemed to know something of the gunslinger. As well, i plan of expanding the info about John Cullum and the gunslingers' visits with him, because this is where Roland and Eddie entrust him with the mission of locating Moses Carver and starting the Tet Corporation. Speaking of the Tet Corporation, there's also no mention of when Susannah visits 1 Hammarsjkold (sp?) plaza, home of the rose and the Tet Corporation. This whole sequence is important because of its implications to events in book 7, not limited to Black Thirteen, which Susannah has in her possession when she enters new york of 1999. The skoldpadda (talismanic representation of the turtle Maturin) should be mentioned as well, as it figures briefly in book 7 as well. Morphine 15:23, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
