Bless Will Self. I read Tough Tough Toys For Tough Tough Boys when I was feeling very down at some point and it made me laugh so much, quite insane and absurd.

I read Marabou Stork Nightmares by Irvine Welsh and The Groundwater Diaries by Tim Bradford (author of Is Shane MacGowan Still Alive? ...is there a discussion upon that book??). Now I'm on John Griffiths's Rugby's Strangest Matches[/i]

But you'll stick your head back out and shout

Read My Lips: Sexual Subversion and the End of Gender by Riki Wilchins. Well written and thought provoking.

I'm in The Parramatta Heritage Centre at the moment and just started reading this book there but it's a reference book so I can't borrow it to take it home

Robert Harris Ghost.
I don't think I'm giving away too much of the plot by saying that Tony Blair as a CIA agent recruited at Cambridge in 1975 really does sometimes seem like the only plausible explanation for why he so comprehensively sold out the UK to President Butch. An extremely readable political thriller.

Sounds like a good book, Mr C. You've given away just enough to fuel my interest.
