A friend however gave me a biography of Leonard Cohen for Chrissy, which I'll get round to reading soon.<br /><br />I'm now reading a book called How to Live Safely in a Science Fiction World, not druggy at all, though quite weird all the same.<br /><br />Also wishing you a spendid New Year.Anne Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14258633760886787723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27068668.post-61028306572647166832010-12-27T21:29:49.861+11:002010-12-27T21:29:49.861+11:00the excesses were well-covered in the books by Boc...the excesses were well-covered in the books by Bockris and by Hotchner, but Keef's own books highlight for me was the sweet letters he wrote to his aunt when he was 19, and how brave he is to include their gaucheness now.<br /><br />also the end-papers of the book are just wonderful - it's every record we had at home at the same time.<br /><br />Now I'm reading Mt Booky Wook and that is just as druggy.<br />wishing you peace and loveAnn ODynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01159263330547329077noreply@blogger.com
