Hi there!

General searches for this title turned up a bazillion and five links
for a spoken word album!  Now I'm intrigued, this fellow must have
quite a way with words!

But you're looking for the book, and here's what I've found:

It's here, at AddAll.com, ranging from $11.66 all the way to $200! 
It's a huge URL, but it will take you right to the search results!
[ http://used.addall.com/SuperRare/submitRare.cgi?author=Nick+Cave&title=And+The+Ass+Saw+The+Angel&keyword=&isbn=&order=TITLE&ordering=ASC&dispCurr=USD&binding=Any+Binding&min=&max=&timeout=20&match=Y&StoreAbebooks=on&StoreAlibris=on&StoreAntiqbook=on&StoreBibliology=on&StoreBiblion=on&StoreBibliopoly=on&StoreBiblioroom=on&StoreChapitre=on&StoreElephantbooks=on&StoreHalf=on&StoreILAB=on&StorePowel
s=on ]

Not under $20, but very close to it, at $21.24:

]

You can check back often at Alibris.com [
http://www.alibris.com/home.cfm ], as the inventory does change often.

VenturaPacific [ http://www.venturapacific.net/cgi-bin/vpb455/index.html
] boasts "Any out of print book!".  I didn't find Mr. Cave's novel in
their database today, but they do update every day, and even offer a
free booksearch service.

I hope this will help you get your book!

Best regards,

Yipes!

I just want to add my apologies for the odd spacing, I had no idea it
would do that!  I hope it doesn't make things confusing!

I apologize.  The correct link is
"http://www.StudentBookWorld.com/ViewBook.asp?sISBN=0140131515" Using
the link above would require you to type in the title and do a search.
 Have fun reading the book.

"And the Ass Saw the Angel" is not out of print! You can order it new
at Amazon UK for £4.79 which is about $3.50.

For those really brutally long links, you might find this site handy:

http://www.shorterlink.com/

(Obviously a researcher should mention a root link before mentioning
the shorterlink.)

Hope this helps!
