the smoke gets in your eyes
run the exhaust back inside
close the window and take a ride
i've got a place to go
there's nowhere to hide

Irvine Welsh's short story in his Acid House novel about the humble blue bottle is just bringing kafka.s metamorphosist to a new generation.

Yes it was but it needs a great effort. Its a great insight into war, relationships and how people react to events in life. The book gets down in philosophy for the last 100 pages which was a bit of a chore.Man_called_sun wrote:Worth it?Apples99 wrote:I have just finished War and Peace. That was a mission!
I am not reading it again though
