All the half-wits on here who are constantly whining about "the art of pretend forgetfulness" should read Paul Morley's "Words and Music: A History of Pop Music in the Shape of a City."

Good writing, peculiar subject....., November 29, 2004
Reviewer: Kid Dynamite (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
"Turn on the Bright Lights" is a great album, but I don't think this band has achieved the level of greatness as of yet to merit a 200+ page-turner.

Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)

There are many reasons to hide your real identity when you use the Internet. You might want to protect yourself against an oppressive government, or post personal messages to a Usenet newsgroup without identifying yourself to the whole world as the poster.

I tried reading Nothing, but it was so tedious. Carol Morley's work on the same theme was so much better.

Buy this book now because Chris Ott owes me $5000 and I swear if I don't get it by New Year's Eve then his genitals are going to be his new 'unknown pleasures' if you catch my drift.
