Stoat,
Dog Soldiers - Was this to do with R Stone's old mates, Neal Cassady, Jack Kerouac as reimagined as vietnam vets doing a heroin deal out of South East Asia ? If so, I'm there.
Anyway, on the subject of hard-edged, cynical, hippy American novelists, ( I'm guessing Stone fits the bill, ) have you read any TC Boyle ? If not, I guess anything's good, apart from possibly the one about Kellogs Cornflakes and enemas etc, Anthony Hopkins buck-toothed in the movie, howling on about his morning ablutions. I suppose I'm at heart I'm a prude, but the toilet in literature seems to be somewhere you go to do coke, or have sex, or do anything other than develop a philosophy based on fibre. Y'know, or being Nick Hornby.
Anyway, Drop City, by TC Boyle - If you're short of anything innaresting to read on the tube, you could do a bit worse. |
