[Vwoolf] To the Lighthouse: edition with UK text distributed in US?

[Neverow, Vara S.]

Ah. Well, the students can and should do it themselves. (I don't trust university bookstores—they get the wrong editions, for one thing​.) My students are very adept at finding things independently.

Good luck with the course. It sounds wonderful, and I wish I could be a fly on the wall.....

Dear Vara,

Yes - very much so. Alas, the campus bookshops near me are simply incapable of getting books from the UK on time, and they very reasonably refuse to order large numbers of books from the UK that they can’t easily return if unsold, so I’ve learned from hard experience only to order books that they can get from US distributors. I wish it were otherwise.

If you do want to use British editions, it seems that most variations can be acquired from Blackwell's (at a good price, with no shipping fees to the US). An example is below:
