No problem HP, it's a great read.Hip Priest wrote:Thanks for the heads up on that Bonce. I'll be ordering that one.
Never heard of it but just googled it and it sounds like a hard read!Bwfc1958 wrote:So my 14 year old son has just asked me to buy him a book called Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace. Just wondering if anyone has read it and how suitable that'd be and if it's any good? This is the first time he's took an interest in books so I'm hoping it's not inappropriate.

Give it a quick Google 58. I think it may have some controversial content for a 14 year old so it’s your call I suppose. I haven’t read it but I once read a magazine article on the author and the book.Bwfc1958 wrote:

And away! I love Bob Mortimer, a naturally funny man. I don't even like fishing but love him and Paul Whitehouse on BBC2.finlaymcdanger wrote:

I’d let him read it - good on him if he’s reading to this level at his age.
I’m reading Bob Mortimer’s autobiography

Sounds interesting but bloody hard work Lusty. I’m attempting to get through Cormac McCarthy’s Outer Dark. Third time lucky!wanderlust wrote:Whilst I’m on holiday I’ve been reading “Putin’s People - how the KGB won back Russia and took on the West”
Absolutely gobsmacking account of how Putin’s old KGB and mafia buddies took state control of everything from resources to media to the legal system back from the oligarchs Yeltsin created and duped an unsuspecting West - and the Russian people - into supporting a return to totalitarian empire building Russia.
It’s a hard read but we’ll worth it.
