Amber's poetry

Does this belong here at all?

I found some of Amber Tamblyn's poetry on youtube. Here's one link.

Is it all that... sexual?
Now I so want to find her books somewhere. Better start searching...

There's another Amber thread that I started that crashed and burned... so sure, it belongs here.

Yes, the poem is very sexual. But it's sexual in a very funny way, as opposed to erotic.

Free Stallion is available at most book stores, the poem she read in the video isn't in the book though.

I ordered my copy of Free Stallion through amazon.de. Maybe you can look online. Do you have online stores in Finland that have English books?

I've watched that video before. Amber's poem is soo funny.

Yeah, we have some english books in our bookstores and many of them has websides. I checked but non of them has Free Stallion in stock. Neighter does any of those webstores I know in Europe. I'm thinking maybe I should order it in from amazon but I've never used that one before. Who can tell me something about them?

Will the shipping costs raise the cost to a double or something? If I buy it straight from Amazon it's over 10$ plus shipping. I found some cheaper ones too that were labeled used and good condition that costs less but there's a note "this seller is in US, shipping costs are added" or something like that. How about the paying? Can I pay with an invoice that comes with the package? I like it that way. I don't like using greditcards and I've never used paypal before. What else is there?

Amber does talk about sex a LOT. And I love it! She's really twisted in the coolest way possible. And utterly brilliant. One of my favorite things ever is her commentary on the Stephanie Daley DVD. You really get a sense of her as a person and an artist. I HIGHLY recommend watching that movie and then listening to the commentary.

But so far my favorite line she's ever written is, "God is a realist with no Christian friends." It's the last line of her poem, Numbers from Free Stallion.

Maria, maybe it would be cheaper if you ordered the book on amazon.de, they'll ship it from Germany. But I guess you'll need at least rudimentary German for that, the site is in German. Don't think they have an English language version. Or try amazon.co.uk, that's the British one. Shipping from the US to Finland will probably as expensive as the book itself.

I got my book from amazon Germany too. I was so happy that they had it there, because I can't buy from the US, since I don't have a credit card.
