Yeah I've only read Welcome To The Monkey House from that collection as part of my course on North American short stories. I thought it was ok, but nothing on Cat's Cradle / Slaughterhouse 5 / Breakfast of Champions.

Just read Vurt by jeff noon - to be honest first thing i've read in a long time, it was truly captivating- really gave me a lot to think about, not just the content and the story, but about writing as a whole and the editorial process.
As this was his first book (i think) it's quite telling, how he captured the thaughts at the time.
I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone, especialy anyone like us.
From his site (no fanboy)
"A cross between A CLOCKWORK ORANGE and BLADERUNNER. Rough, raunchy, dynamic and dirty. A gruelling emotional and physical rollercoaster trip. Heart stopping cicus, savage dance and mutant music give you a glimpse of the dangerous road ahead... Where vurt feathers take you on a speedy ride through a strangers skull. "

Fear and Loathing is ace and Heart of Darkness is just something else, fantastic book. It's quite dense at first, I found myself having to re-read what I'd just read in the first 30 pages or so, then you get into the swing of it and it's great.BEN? wrote:Just finished Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Absolutely fucking agree! The films out in October, can't wait.
The Border Trilogy is also really worth reading. McCarthy is a modern legend.
