After he wrote Fear and Loathing I think he bacame a bit self indulgent. He definitely broke ground though. At his best he was like lightning hitting ice. Miss him.

I came across this book, and was considering reading it. Is it a good book? What exactly is it about? What lessons or ideas does it express?

I was surprisingly impressed by his inner maturity as he spoke about his life... and career... any one else listen? If so, what did you think of him?

How would you cope with being told by police, someone killed their wife, after being addicted to your books... ? Which is what happened to SK.

What's your take on this?

And what do you think of Kirsty Young taking over from Sue Lawley as presenter? I think she's good!

I don't know if the poem is entitled Quetzalcoatl or whether he is merely the subject of the poem. The poem describes a pedestal with an inscription upon it. The pedestal used to have a statue upon it, but no more. And the everlasting nature of his society and culture, now consumed by the desert. Poet? Anyone?

A town close to where I live wants to pull a book off the shelves at it's school libraries. It's called "And Tango makes three" It's a true story about two male penguins at a zoo that adopt an egg, and raise the baby penguin. They say the book is based on homosexuals.

I study English Language at 6th form and for my first piece of coursework I need to write the opening chapter to a story. I'm thinking along the lines of horror. But I need some style models (authors and books of which I'll need to base my style of writing on). Does anyone have any ideas of stories which are good at gripping the reader right from the very first chapter? I'm thinking along the lines of Steven King or similar authors. Does anyone have any suggestions about good books I could use, please? Thank you!
