A dingo ate my baby

Brixton Bruen: A White Arrest, Taming the Alien, The McDead. About halfway through the first, I thought: well, not so much my cup of tea as the Jack Taylor novels. (I especially like first-person narratives. And those Guards books are really insanely good that way.) However, by the third here I was wholly won over. More to come...

Saw an interesting dead puppet show this evening. Puppet part good--very elegant, very creepy--but awful voiceover thing by Bill Irwin just pretentious. Obvious insights cloaked in academic prose. Why do they stick this stuff in? The music and the puppets were really great otherwise...
