Belfast Confidential - Colin Bateman.

Cracking crime novel - but from the point of view of a Belfast journalist, with a perpetual hangover, a love of taking the piss and the ability to be a "shit magnet".

Very, very funny at some parts - particularly if you can hear the Norn Iron accent in your head.

I don't usually read crime/detective books - but this was very enjoyable.

'the crossroads' by niccollo amaniti - quirky little tale of a small-town italian robbery plot. well-written and populated, with some nice comic touches that owe a lot to a good translation, it feels like.

Did you read Last Chance to See? I cannot recommend it highly enough. It's one of my all-time favorite books; funny, sad, and witty throughout. Definitely belongs to the essential Adams, imo.
Yeah long time ago. Theres a new BBC TV series where Stephen Fry tracks down the animals in the book. Looks good.

Not so sure why, but I always feel like you're talking trash.
