He has been seen carrying a book with him. Do you think he likes reading poetry?

He loves Anthony Burgess. I read in an interview from 1989 that he read in this time "Fürst der Phantome" (sry, don´t know the english title ) So I think he is not interested in poetry ;D

Great! Looking forward to the pic! Me too. Mmm, I read Star Trek and Star Wars books and of course I read the Hitchhikers Guide, but apart from that I prefer Fantasy books. He should read Terry Pratchett, I think he would like it. Anthony Burgess? He's that guy that wrote Clockwork Orange? Earthly Powers amazon synopsis: "Anthony Burgess' epic masterpiece follows the lives of two men who each represent different kinds of earthly power. Kenneth Toomey is an eminent novelist, world-famous homosexual, and a man who has outlived his contemporaries to survive into honoured, bitter, luxurious old age as a celebrity of dubious notoriety. Don Carlo Campanati is a man of God, who rises through the Vatican as a subtle negotiator and shrewd manipulator to become the controversial architect of church revolution and a candidate for sainthood. Through the lives of these two men, related to each other not only by family ties but also by sympathy, genius and a deep common understanding of mankind's frailties, Burgess explores the very essence of power."

Btw, did you know that Queen are mentioned in "Good Omens" by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman? It's really funny, there's this demon and all music tapes that are in his car for longer than a fortnight turn into Queen tapes. I always wondered whether the authors love or hate Queen...
