Large Flying Books

I picked up (as in ‘picked up’ and not ‘bought’) a copy of the new Harry Potter book whilst browsing round Woolworths this afternoon. It took me a while to get my hands on it because just as my hand approached, the book would just fly off the shelf leaving me grasping at air. Having finally caught one, I must say, it is a weighty tome.

    Hi Matt.

    Sorry, it’s not about Harry.
    I’ve tried to mail you, but I’m not sure it gets through to you.
    I was trying to tell you about this error I get:

    Well I guess it would make a good paperweight/doorstop.

    Oh, and I wrote a review of the massive “A Suitable Boy” by Vikram Seth for Waterstone’s magazine, back in the day. It read, in it’s entirety: “I couldn’t pick it up”.

    They declined to print it, the humourless bastards…
