Being a bit crazy about the Beatles my favourite book is "Revolution in the Head" by Ian McFarlane who writes in depth about every song they ever recorded. Some other books I really liked were Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut and The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. Also Richard Flanagan's book Death of a River Guide is a densely imaginitive & original Tasmanian novel you should read sometime.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I Met Ringo Starr when I was 11!
