“How many push-ups can you do? Do you know what the longest military siege in history was? How much will you spend for a haircut? Do you recall the last time you wept? Is there merit in carpet or is it a bad idea all around in your view? Are you engaged in a fight against clutter?”
Subtitled ‘A Novel?’, this is unlike any book I have ever read. Basically it’s a continuous stream of seemingly unrelated questions. There is no plot, no conclusion and there are no answers yet somehow on some bizarre level it just works. It makes you think, feel, laugh and maybe even cry. Probably all within one page! What more can you ask of a book?
Zen Guitar - Philip Toshio Sudo
OK, so some of this might be a little tenuous and flaky, but it also has a lot of good things to say. It’s a surprisingly light and easy read and makes a lot of sense whether you play guitar or not. I’m not the world’s biggest reader, but I raced through it in no time. Definitely worth a look.

New York Doll - The Story Of Arthur ‘Killer’ Kane.
I love music docs & have watched far too many for my own good. Some of them are naturally better than others, but this one still stands out as one of my absolute favourites. I watched it again recently and it was just as engrossing and moving as the first time I saw it. I won’t spoil it for you by giving any details. Just watch it already will you?
