I never read just one book at a time- I have about 10 by my bed and dive into what I fancy at the time. As posted elsewhere, just finished Angela Carter's fairy tales, Valerie and her Week of Wonders. Now about half way through the new edition of Broken Mirrors/Broken Minds; The dark Dreams of Dario Argento (New 2010 Edition) which is unputdownable and I will probably finish tonight. Also waiting for a couple of 'Doc's recommendations to come from Amazon but they have a three week wait on them :(

Been filling up on Canadian theatre lately...reading lots of plays. MacIvor, Panych, Walker, guys like that.

Just finished Monster by Daniel MacIvor, now starting into his Cul-De-Sac. I think a lot of folks around here would really like this guy's style, Monster in particular. He's quickly becoming one of my favourite playwrights (also read - and saw performances of - Here Lies Henry and This Is A Play recently) and I'd highly recommend his work.

Very witty, with one hell of a sharp edge. Check him out.

Investigating the Russian Mafia by Joseph Serio. Going beyond the typical stereotypes of the Mafia, Joseph Serio is working to show that organized crime is a Soviet phenomena whose roots are grounded in that country's pre-Soviet history. Merci beaucoup.

Gogol has arrived- Yay:cool:

A Million Versions of Right
 

Thanks for this reccomendation, Doc.
Its awsome-challenging, mindbending and entertaining. Its interesting to read something about sexuality by a man which isn't to titilate or with the sole purpose of being a turn on. Trying in vain at times to actually understand what the motives for some of the stories was. This book is by turns frank and bizzar. Going to check out what else he has written as I have nerely finished this.
Tnanks again x

No problem. If you enjoyed it and have the time, Amazon reviews are a great asset to us small press authors. Matt is a really nicet guy with a fantastic warped sense of humor and he's a pleasure to work with. Legumeman is basically the only Aussie press doing what he's doing and have thus far put out nothing but incredibly strange, intense and unique books.

If only King had settled with just 1 line instead of 600 pages of boring nonsense.


"I hate cell phones and people with cell phones". The end

I liked the way he dealt with the zombies, though.

What do you mean by dealt with?

The ending was hopeless. Actually everything but the beginning was just really bad. Even his characters sucked.

The Magazine of Bizarro Fiction #3

Just arrived in the mail. I'm half way through Doc's Re-Mancipator and it's freakin awesome as everything else I've read of his!
