| Mishima, Burroughs, kerouac, Fante, bukowski, welsh. I'm not sure whether they all count as literature in its most grandiose sense. How about you? Whom do you like? Fond of Burroughs, Kerouac and Welsh (assuming, of course, you're referring to Irvine Welsh). Very keen to read Mishima, but I'm decid... |

Welcome! 
XTC, eh? Good band, for sure. Admittedly not a favourite of mine, though.
I do find myself nodding in sage assent with regards to conspiracy theorists and the infernal alternative medicine lobby.

Figures, really, given that my diet and exercise regime principally consists of ingesting enough tiger bread to sink a cruise liner and then idling in a chair. |

Books.
Films.
Frenetically twittering to a horde of imaginary companions.
In short, reaping full advantage of any medium that offers the barest semblance of a human presence.

What other literature do you enjoy? |

My two favourite smiths tunes. Also, is that Knut Hamsun in your avatar?
Er, no. It's Yeats.
Have heard of Hamsun (and, of course, his politics ), but have never quite gotten 'round to reading his works.
Are you a fan? |
