Books

What is it with this guy Russell Brand? He wears make up. He talks funny. The couple of times I have seen him interviewed he talks shite on top of that. Yet his book My Booky Wook (now what kind of title is that....) stares at me from every bookshop in town. Get lost! Go away! Now a book that should be staring at every one, silently saying 'buy me, buy me' is Netherland by Joseph O'Neill. One of the best books I've read in years. Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize and favorite of the bookies. A story of London and New York post 9/11. About The Hague, about love, about friendship and to a lesser extent about cricket. A must read. Forget stupid wookybook...
