From: TonyK <college@aliasrecords.com>, on 3/13/98 3:23 PM: One of the best books I've ever read has to be A Prayer for Owen Meaney by John Irving. For some reason it strikes me as very Belle&Sebastian, there is a certain magic to it and a poetry that is enough to bring one to tears on occasion. It's a bit longish but well worth it. For something a might more disturbing (and consequently less B&S) try Geek Love by Katherine Dunne. Very strange story but a good read nonetheless. I have to say Geek Love is one of my favorite books of all time! I would also recommend The Wasp Factory by Ian Banks or Perfume by Patrick Suskind for those who like strange.
