It's as relevant today, as it was when it first came out, commenting on governments creating mega-projects to keep their people in line, or censorship and control, but it's also funny and touching.
Second favourite - Lonely Planet's book on Ibiza, as I went there for the first time and it was stunning - not all drugs and dancefloors! Not read any recent releases, but I might try the Booker prize winner. Looks fascinating. (less)

There is no such thing as writer's block. It's really a perceived notion that you're not writing the right material. So just keep writing. Even if you write 1000 words and only 50 of them are useful, then you're 50 words further ahead than you were yesterday.... just pray that's not the case every day!(less)
