  1. Well this got me, I didn't feel any book I have read work of fiction was truly disturbing, until I sat down to read my son jack and the bean stalk I mean what are we teach in our children, lies theft and ultimately murder. So I sat down and read puss in boots to him and what did I discover a cat conman/concat who lies steals and murders I was taken aghast. By the way I'm not some new age pansy when it comes to my fiction I like some fudgeed up shhhhhhh, but jack and the cat are a pair of stone cold motherfudgeers
  2. Ah thank you I shall have a look at these and see if any tickle my fancy
  3. I'm looking for some recomendations, I like james ellroy, the red riding quartet by David Peace and also his Tokyo year zero I'm also a big Jim Thompson fan. I made a small foray into true crime reading three Joseph Wambaugh books (glitter dome, echoes in the darkness and the blooding) which I liked very much,I very much enjoyed true detective too and liked the philosophical slant it takes, any recomendations would be lovely thanx
  4. In the last year i have worked my way through my tbr pile, i am now left with one to go The Man Without Qualities by Robert Musil and boy its a beast, since the moment i claped eyes on it i have been dreading it....but i think its time to bite the bullet and get it done.
  5. Without a doubt the best crime writer for me, it feels like reading a living nightmare and completely scrambles your perspective on peoples motive and the world at large, looking forward to start on the Savage Art bio and from what ive read the mans life was as twisted as his books.
  6. Cancer Ward - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Therese Raquin - Emile Zola The Confusions Of Young Torless - Robert Musil
  7. I love this book, i keep it next to my Jim Thompson books
