The...South of the Border is my favourite HM, Geoff. The real fanboys are a bit sniffy about it because it's not weird enough.<BR/><BR/>Thank you, Red. Your own end-of-year round-up is certainly thought-provoking. Several of those go on my to-buy list.<BR/><BR/>Everyone's saying it's a return to form for the Coens, Dick, and God knows they need one of those.<BR/><BR/>Molly, so good to hear your voice. Been gone too long. Yes, I like it when they ask the old farts like JGB, because they always claom not to have read any new stuff, and they're rediscovering somebody elderly like Trollope or Borges. Anthony Burgess was the best for that - usually said that his own book was the best, and he hadn't read anything else because he was learning Estonian or some such bollocks.Tim Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14681067872556519250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18775356.post-23358971337839009432007-12-30T09:58:00.000+00:002007-12-30T09:58:00.000+00:00I'd agree with you on the old 'round ups' Tim.

Still, it does mean that they pull out J G Ballard for his views (yay to J G). Oldies, but goldies. I'm afraid I have to agree with you on Feist. Sorry Betty. I think it's the blue sequin top that does it for me though. Smashing. 1,2,3,4....<BR/><BR/>Have a Feistian Christmas and New Year. Have a Proustian tasting of Mince Pies and a Faustian...errrm....yeah.Molly Bloomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15002045980797531079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18775356.post-18351210444503794552007-12-29T22:44:00.000+00:002007-12-29T22:44:00.000+00:00I was very impressed with No Country for Old Men. ...I was very impressed with No Country for Old Men.

I'm sure that'll change.<BR/><BR/>New discoveries for me this year include The Wire and bands Josef K and Moby Grape.<BR/><BR/>Not forgetting Carlos Tevez, before he lost his soul.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.com
