  1. Squeezing Out Sparks is a brilliant album but his best track by far is Mercury Poisoning
  2. Twin Peaks this week - the scene with Gordon, Albert, the French lady and the bottle of wine was hilarious
  3. Absolutely. Lots of tiny threads. 3 Dale Coopers. David Lynch is brilliant as Gordon Cole. How are they going to tie this all together ? It is great to see how many of the original cast are involved 25 years on !! Hellloooo-oooo !!!
  4. Another one from a German perspective is "The Forgotten Soldier" by Guy Sajer. The twist here is that he was a Frenchman from Alsace with a German mother who fought for Germany. It is a very harrowing story although some doubts have been cast on its authenticity.
  5. I saw that in the 99p sale. Caught my eye as I'm reading Anthony Beevor's "D-Day". Great book with lots of detail and great sub-stories. The one fault is keep having to refer back to the maps all the time to make some sort of geographical sense. They should issue the maps as separate sheets ! The interesting point he makes again and again (and also came out in "Italy's Sorrow" by James Holland) is what an effective fighting force the Germans still were in 1944.
  6. "Red or Dead" - David Peace's fictionalised account of Bill Shankly's time at Liverpool FC. Very stylised but a good read all the same.
