    I could listen to Mr Self reading the back of a cat litter bag (compliment!) . . . brilliant. thanks for uploading. Really enjoy your videos. Will, if you happened to read this - consider a (very long) unabridged audio version of the trilogy - if you had nothing else to do . . .

    I thought about driving in from Louisville, Kentucky for this. I now wish that I had as I haven't seen Will do a reading since I was living in New York and "Umbrella" just had just come out. (And he doesn't come to colonies often.)
    Hope to see him again in the not-too-distant future.

    Will Self is fantastic and a phenomenal writer, articulate and wise but he is also often full of shit. I think that'a fair loving assessment. I love him, especially this trilogy.

      I imagine that Will Self reads lots of books.

      I think if someone can read a 300 page + novel and understand it and enjoy it and remember the story line to it for years later, and do the same for many 300 + page novels, remembering the characters and story to all of them for years later, then that is GENIUS!
      I can read, what I have a problem with his putting the words along the sentences in a way that makes understandings and meanings in my brain.
      Enjoy your Summer, Lex!
      With Best Wishes!
      Cheers - Mike.

      Lex Wick Self's books are a fucking drudge. I threw his last one away. He has zero ability to connect emotionally, just a load of word wank.

    To paraphrase: It's expensive to pay for using another's work. Catch me if you can.

    Not sure about the northern accent.
