Testimony of Light

Astonishing book

"Frances Banks died, as she had lived, fully aware of what she was experiencing and where she hoped to go. Her friend Helen Greaves was by her side as she finally lapsed into unconsciousness. Then, one evening some three weeks after Frances's death, Helen sensed her presence. This extraordinary encounter marked the beginning of contact between them from both sides of the veil-between life as we know it and life on "the other side."

Testimony of Light is based on these communications that Helen received telepathically from Frances. The writings have been authenticated by those who knew them both and who were familiar with their individual writing styles. Moving and inspiring, this classic book is a testament to the enduring power of their friendship, and offers an important message to us all-that the death of the body is but a gentle passing to a much freer and fuller life."

I'm listening to Hitch 22 on audiobook at the moment. It's very melancholic but it is really touching. Really makes me miss Christopher Hitchens.

I've just finished the film and it is superb. The most refreshing performance of a Shakespeare play I have ever seen. It's serious, but I wouldn't say it was too heavy - it's well-paced and dynamic. You should definitely watch it.

Will do.

Is every line printed twice, sootyj?

A couple of weighty tomes:

The Complete Guide to Asterix (1997) by Peter Kessler. Changing hands for 50 quid in second-hand shops, so needs to be reprinted and updated. A quick read which taught me a few new Asterix factoids, including a nod to Tintin I'd previously missed in Asterix the Legionary.

The Joy of Sexism (1996) by Viz. Top stuff, especially the ads and the page from the Bible.

Now back to Chinese history books.

I think I feel an Asterix and Tintin weekend coming on.

An H.P.Lovecraft anthology.
Cheap as chips on the old Kindle.

Fabrice muamba's autob.

I have just finished reading, Reaper Man by Terry Pratchett

Strange Days Indeed by Francis Wheen, showing us how the seventies with the benefit of hindsight is like an alien planet, and yet strangely familiar

Beavis & Butthead - Huh Huh Hollywood

...so what??!

It's got words in it

'Dad, Help Me Please.'

The story of Derek Bentley hanged following a miscarriage of justice.

Then I thought I fancied seeing the film 'Let Him Have It' when I've finished the book.
