It is.
A lot of other writers and artists have been mentioning book sales are the best way to help his family.

I'll have to go grab a few. They should have mentioned that it was to help out.

I think the point was that whatever cut Cooke gets from sales his family would now get.
I'm sure that sale is more about attention to his work.
His family made a statement about donating to Canadian Cancer Society in his honour.

I fucking hate cancer. I wish it was something I could smash in the face and kill.
