From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia

"Old orange Penguin paperbacks were spread across a coffee table, along with a clutch of CDs: Four Tet, John Parish, Stina Nordenstam, Bill Laswell. I tried to imagine what H looked like , just from the sound of his voice . I saw sleepily intelligent eyes, a large mouth, plump lips, Jack Palance cheekbones."--London Revenant (2005) by Conrad Williams |
