Reading material for the next few weeks. Had seen motorcycle diaries the movie so many times which was amazing, I thought it was about time I got the book.
Just finishing up on Jim Hutton’s autobiography as well which is really good. Queen fanatics say that Jim was a bastard, but from what I gathered from a few Carlovian’s, Jim was a gent so I’ll take the book as a bit more honest. Got Kevin Sinfield’s as well which I may start on.
I have a heap of stuff to read.
I bought Zadie Smith’s White Teeth the other day and my heart sang at the size of the thing.
“Woke is dead” Piers Morgan. Great bit of stuff
Richie Kavanagh has a new book out. I can pick up a signed copy here in the Arboretum for €30 if anybody would like the ideal Christmas present.
Very enjoyable book
Why doesn’t he have his gloves on
I’ve already bought a jumper off @Chancer for my granda 
These six books are on my bedside locker and I’m currently reading(dipping in and out of) all six of them
Also listening to Evan Dando’s autobiography, I’ve no attention span anymore 
Tsunduoku
I saw Richie during the summer somewhere - he’s fair shook.
Was a roaster of a day and him, shook and all, in the roaster outfit.
Interesting cameo from a young Senator called Joe Biden in this
Donnie Brosco by Joseph D. Pistone.
I heard you paint houses by Charles Brandt
Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi (the book good fellas was based on.
I just finished A Month in the Country by JL Carr. Great book. A classic.
I have 3 of those (have a guess 
)
The Keegan novella is a masterpiece, possibly even better than Foster though the film version of Foster is far superior
The Toibin novella was previously published in a collection, I had assumed it was new, it’s a nice story.
I think the short form novel is the future as the generations with short attention span evolve
Merry Christmas
I know it’s Christmas but can lads be serious please. No woman ever wrote a book that could be deemed a masterpiece.
That Seamus Heaney fella is good. Worth reading
