Ben Okri: Starbook
Booker prize-winning Ben Okri's first novel in five years stands in the grand tradition of myth-making with a vision and voice uniquely its own. "This is a story my mother began to tell me when I was a child. The rest I gleaned from the book of life among the stars, in which all things are known," says Okri.John Connolly: Nocturnes
Bestselling author John Connolly's first collection of short fiction, Nocturnes, a dark, daring, utterly haunting anthology of lost lovers and missing children, predatory demons, and vengeful ghosts.Joseph Campbell: The Hero with a Thousand Faces
Campbell's unique perspectives examine the world's complex and interwoven mythology, folklore and religion, providing an understanding of the essence and genesis of humanness.Michael Ondaatje: Anil's Ghost: A Novel
“Gorgeously exotic…. As he did in The English Patient, Mr. Ondaatje is able to commingle anguish and seductiveness in fierce, unexpected ways.”–The New York Times

I'm f*cking Matt Damon
Well not me. Not personally anyway. Thankfully. Although he's touted as one of the sexiest men alive I'm more of a Javier Bardem or an Edward Norton kind of a girl, myself.
I was nosing around Twitter and found one of the funniest things I've ever seen online on Neil In Space's blog. Sweet mother of Shiva, I've been crying with laughter for the last half an hour. Who says that women aren't funny? That Sarah Silverman is pure genius. Check out the video she made for her boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel, the Emmy-nominated American late-night talk show star.
But remember, the show isn't over until the fat boy sings.
