I try to write myself and reading his stuff makes me want to jump under a bus, he's about a million times better than anything I could come up with.
Celine is the shit, I loved that book

I bought the doors of perception b2b heaven and hell about 6 weeks ago with a stewart lee dvd, but never got around to reading it.
Think I'll finally get around to reading a few pages tomorrow, unless I go out picking :)

It's a great read, haven't read heaven and hell yet but the doors of perception is great. Thing is with stuff like that, if you've done hallucinogenics you know everything he says before you read the book.

Weirdly enough, when it arrived, I opened the book to a random page, read the first sentence I saw, and was like 'Holy fuck, I know exactly what he means'
Trying to get in to the right frame of mind to read it though, don't wann lazily pass through it, gonna try and absorb as many super deep metaphors as i can first time around.

It's pretty good so far, the first part being about some of the top cats in American porn. Pretty interesting. And he writes really well too.
