The Flying Troutmans is Indiespensible!

So Miriam Toews's glorious The Flying Troutmans is the fifth pick by Powells for its brilliant, needs-to-be-emulated-across-the-industry subscription program, Indiespensible.

Here's what you get, quoth Powells:

An exclusive signed and numbered first edition, weeks before the standard copy goes on sale. Plus, the Indiespensable edition includes:

• Custom slipcase wrapped in mahogany paper with a linen embossment
• Book's title and author's name stamped in silver foil on the slipcase spine; matching foil stamp of the author's signature on the front panel

Dare I suggest: the right way for an indie publisher to go about an online exclusive?
