Interesting read, each chapter narrated by a different person and from their own perspective.

When I read now it's mostly for my sis. We just finished reading this
http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347793184l/709822.jpg
about Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper, and I thought that was heavy until we began this, which we're currently on.

Absolutely harrowing, horrifying and chilling. From national treasure to most hated man in Britain, monster, paedophile and necrophiliac in a few short weeks following his death. For someone who grew up listening to him on the radio (though he was far from my favourite DJ: never really liked him), saw him on "Top of the Pops" and settled down to watch "Jim'll Fix It" every Saturday evening, this really hits home and give me shivers down my spine. The most evil man in the world? You would not be far wrong.

This is my first foray into Bukowski's mad and deranged writing. Read it in two days, it's bloody brilliant. If at all interested in booze, detectives, babes, guns, blood, space aliens, birds, and everything in between, I'd hope you give this a read.

Interesting. Che Guevara travels basically all of South America with his bestfriend on a shitty small motorcycle. The people they meet (who surprisingly are always amiable towards them) and the ground they covered shaped, especially Che, their political beliefs and the men they eventually became. Enjoying it quite a bit.

Didn't Che end up killing a higher percentage of his population than Stalin or something?

Battle Royale and The Hunger Games at the same time? It's obvious that THG was "inspired" by BR. Would love to hear your review of the two books once you're finished with them.
