Hahahahaha! I have a copy of Haruki Murakami’s Pinball 1973, in English!
Unfortunately though I won’t get to see it for about 2 months as I’m abroad right now (Thailand) and its only just arrived at my home. As soon as I get home I’ll photograph it and pop some photos on here. I won’t attempt to review the book because I suck at literary / artistic criticism.
I’m telling myself that I will resell it (after much admiration) because I can’t justify the amount of money I spent on it, on a mere book. At least I think I will. Hmm. I should work on trying to find a way to convince myself keeping it is morally acceptable =P
Please show your envy (or make your best offer) below :D
I think I have an addiction to threadless.com.
I’m not a materialistic guy at all, but some of these tops are just so achingly slick that I simply *have* to buy them! They’re so original, so funky, and so crazy in some cases… I’ve never seen any t-shirts in the highstreet that rival the designs here – even a lot of the submissions that don’t make it into print are great! They’re cheap too, and actually end up being cheaper (from the USA to the UK) than the standard print t-shirts in Topman (which are crap anyway, don’t get me started on their booze/sex/football/laddy slogans that try to be witty). Screw designer labels, get something different, get something from a company that cares :D
