What I'm Reading, Watching and Listening to.
Reading - In Cold Blood by Truman Capote (mandatory re-reading after just seeing Capote for the first time) and simultaneously, by Michael Chabon, The Yiddish Policemen's Union, which is absolutely amazing.
Watching - Courtesy of Netflix: Extract (just ok, although Ben Affleck is pretty engaging as the drug-dealing bartender), Bobby (intertwines a number of characters, all headed towards their presence at RFK's fatal encounter with Sirhan Sirhan), The Bourne Ultimatum, A History of Violence (really good flick) and One Fast Move or I'm Gone, a documentary with commentary by the likes of Patti Smith, Tom Waits, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Carolyn Casady and many others, revolving around Kerouac's Big Sur and his descent into madness. I also really liked Brad Pitt and Bruce Willis in 26 Monkeys.
Listening - Fela Kuti, Midlake, Nicolette Larson, Field Music, Sir Douglas Quintet and lots of good ol' Grateful Dead.
