Responding to the discussion on the annotated *Three Guineas: *I got the
same message as Jane and others reported when ordering books for this
semester, that this title was out of print. I notified my students that I
hoped they might be able to locate copies online; many of them did using
Thriftbooks.com (click 'see all editions':
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/three-guineas_virginia-woolf/265343/all-editions/__;!!KGKeukY!1dnwE1wrCyyhIMaqX8mB61LYrHi8Env2K6fIi5bm13VPvpeK4wMzijv5qWP8UJRW4TOzritj4bI0NGM6XOtOA9bJ7Q$ 
).

Mark, I truly hope your connection to the HarperCollins editor can bear
fruit. I've used the annotated editions every time I've taught Woolf and
hope these can continue to be available for students!

best, Jeanette
