![]() A nice choice for an end of the year reading assignment. It is pretty lax in class, so it really is like reading it just for fun. |

Currently... re-reading Junky and browsing through some J. Crew catalogs. In all seriousness, the J. Crew photogs do it right, can make anything look cool. I also suspect they cheat via photoshop cuz some of those models are impossibly elongated.

Well, I think they are at least interesting. I have no idea what is going to happen next. I've already read one sequel and am halfway through the second, so I think I'll finish the third just to know what happens. |
Also, Pauline Kael's Hooked (compilation of a period of her New Yorker movie reviews), and the 33 1/3 book on VU & Nico.

Finished Black Dahlia (in 4 days), now onto The Big Nowhere.
ithinkimissyou: have a read of Killing Hope by William Blum, every covert and overt action in chronological order and meticulously documented. Every overthrown government, every dirty war, every dictator supported. And for the skinny on CIA narco-trafficking, The Politics of Heroin by Alfred W. McCoy. But you need to undersand, the CIA is not some rogue group or whatever as is so commonly perceived - thats the plausible deniability. It takes its orders directly from the Executive and is carrying out administration policy. |

I have to do a short thesis for a communications class I'm taking, and so I've decided to study the advertising methods used in the J. Crew catalog. For instance, manipulation of photographs, use of thin models, settings, etc.

I frequently visit Chuck Palahniuk's website to look for new books or just to read the author shorts section.
Really enjoyed Craig Clevenger's Mother-Howl Can't wait for them to post Subcarrier. I also suggest reading Chuck's Guts if you're into misanthropic literature. Love this site. |
guts is an amazing read. thats what made me really like him as a writer. after i finished my current read i am going onto choke.
