I eat books:-

Scar Tissue - Anthony Kiedis

I shot coke, I shot heroin, I smoked weed, I shagged girls. Reminds me of university days but do I feel the urge to write a book about it? Just like those Maggi Mee (instant noodles) I eat some times - enjoyable at some doses but I'll hurl if I eat too much.

A Crack in Space - Philip K. Dick

Ye olde parallel Earth story. Although a black president is really quite relevant now. Jus like the sushi I eat every week - satisying and a very familiar taste.

Invisible Man - H.G. Wells

Goes down well as a good Steak and Kidney pie. Nothing like a good ole English yarn about a concept still far ahead of its time.

Rough Guide to Reggae

This is the equivalent of Ganja Curry Fish Head. It's spicy and you get high as well (Until they stopped selling it about fifteen years ago). Very exhaustive, sure, but how the hell am I gonna find any of the records besides the website SOIDBOT'M recommended? (I am paranoid about using my credit card online)

Commedia - Dante

It's the vindaloo with extra chillies then a cool mint schwappes later. Nice cautionary tale about sin, and redemption.

Phantom of the Opera - Gaston Leroux

This one is like candy floss. A candid tabloid-style tale for its time. The musical is so much better, anyway. Goes down better if you have the original cast recording playing at the back.

Christ the Lord, Out of Egypt - Anne Rice

Unleavened bread ahoy. Pretty interesting exploration of Christ as a child and young man, although it's hardly canonical (it draws heavily from the Gospel of Thomas, where, inter alia, young Jesus turned his playmates into goats). Hard to swallow but tastes fine.
