Well done & well deserved.

I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to absolutely anyone.

Well deserved indeed.  An astonishing book which has stayed in my head since I read it, and had a real effect on my attitudes and actions.

It is a brilliant and very compelling book, you really have to read it two or three times to get all the interweaving. Plus it's made me start to read Joyce, who I was not that familiar with  but you can read the love that has gone into this book it's fab!

There's a feature on it from Channel 4 news, via Bleeding Cool which dallies with the cliches of comic book news items (why do they need to do the fake strip thing when the presenters are introducing the piece?) but isn't too bad.
