Love craft Country is a great mixture of sci - fi, horror and drama. Historical attitudes help to purvey the themes of sexuality, gender, class and race very well.

Rolling Stone's 366th greatest album of all time
Great modern country album, keeping Cash's sombre yet smirking demeanour. Including a number of covers and originals, setting the theme for his better known subsequent albums.

Really not my cup of tea, and that's all I can say. Vanilla country as far as I can see. Lots of "futbaawwl" and such like. Yeesh.

The praise preceding 21-year-old folk/country singer Colter Wall is immense. Steve Earle says Colter Wall is "the best young singer-songwriter I've seen in 20 years."

Book Favorite

I read The Revolt by Menachem Begin and was encouraged by the fact that the Israeli leader had led a guerrilla force in a country with neither mountains nor forests, a situation similar to our own.

Lyrical look at America's racialised society
James Baldwin was truly an inspirational artist and author in American history. He puts forward very bluntly the issues that the country faces in terms of it's attitude towards black bodies as the body is political. It's rather depressing that after 50 years the US still has not addressed these issues. It's a haunting and poetic documentary. His line about how black people are 'castrated' throughout the country just in different ways is deeply honest and deeply disturbing.

Still not a patch on the first series, but a very gripping drama following the investigation of a rape in a small rural west country town. Very emotional scenes and the whole ordeal was very well handled.
