Travis_Bickle Harvest Oh I don't know, I reckon a West Country twang would work too. I don't know his writing. Gave his Radio 4 thing a try. Didn't work for me.
Harvest Travis_Bickle I started with Naked. I read it by the pool on holiday and there were passages that were genuinely fist in the mouth, tears of laughter. Very clever with a magical use of words at times.
Travis_Bickle Harvest sounds like I need to get beyond the voice. The Radio 4 stuff was like Woody Allen without the laughs. Recommendation to start with?
Under-the-ground Just Kevin_Stapleton just finished this on holiday. you need to have eaten your greens to lift the hardback version. I thought it was very good & it didn’t get boring. The American black rights marches & stuff were eye opening. Good book
Jon I decided earlier this year not to buy any more books until I’d read or started and decided it wasn’t for me, all the unread books I had at home. So far, so, well, I’ve bought a few but less than usual.
Harvest The Laying On Of Hands -Alan Bennett. Amusing little book centred around a vicar, a death and various celebrities. Only short so read in a couple of sittings.
CBIT Bod In a @Harvest stylee thats on my pile. Just finished Once Upon A Time In Hollywood by QT which is really good and Into The Silence is next
CBIT Bod Better, loads more back story on Rick and Cliff and others - lots more about what they were thinking . As always the book is better than the film
Young_Marxist_at_Tescos The Savage Detectives - Roberto Bolano. Seventy pages in. Not entirely sure what’s happening, but the main protagonist seems to spend his time pretending to be a poet and emptying his bags.
