whoa! Is Eleanor Rigby by the Beatles [or whatever it's called] based off of the book?

No, the song came first. The book (published in 2001 I think) is about a lonely middle-aged woman...



It's brilliant, one of my favourite books ever. If you haven't read any Douglas Coupland, do so. Rapidly.

Haha, sounds neat! I *need* to get to the library anyway... I sort of have a list of books I want to read burning a hole in my proverbial pocket.

Plus I need my Terry Pratchett fix before I shrivel up.

If you like Terry Pratchett, and from what I've gleaned of your sense of humour, I'm pretty sure you'd love Christopher Moore's A Dirty Job.

Thanks, I'll try and find that one too!

In no particular order.



Chuck Palhniuk- Survivor, Diary (anything else, although Choke, and Haunted are pretty gross)



Kurt Vonnegut- Slapstick, Hocus Pocus (anything else)



Zadie Smith- White Teeth, The Autograph Man



Salman Rushdie- Midnight's Children



Jonathan Safran Foer- Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close



If you like Memoir, David Sedaris is good.



If you like Fantasy, Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series is king.



And comics are great too, particularly Sandman, Fables and Preacher. (You can find torrents of these and read them for free).

Oh, and Lemony Snickett's A Series of Unfortunate Events is also great, and not just for kids.

Has anybody read The Children's Hospital by Chris Adrian?



Also anything by Nick Bantock is good, especially for the artwork.
