In 1976, her writing, which she said was often fueled by “truly impressive amounts of beer,” landed her a job at The New York Times. She cut an unusual figure in The Times newsroom, wearing blue jeans, going barefoot and bringing in her dog, whose name was an expletive.

This book sat on a shelf at home, while I was in India for six months. My mother's friend, who was to accompany her on their own trip to India, gave it to me. Theirs was an exhausting package tour of North India. Mine was a more leisurely six months, the first two days of which were in Bombay. I was overwhelmed by the heat, filth, poverty, snakes, and culture shock in the brief time I spent in Colaba, and I was out of there heading to Goa on the Konkani Express as soon as was possible. Had I gone to Bombay later in my trip, I might have enjoyed it more. I wish that I had read this book before arriving, because I despised Bombay, and this book has me wanting to take another look.

Shantaram documents the escape of a convicted junkie and stick-up man in Australia, and his flight to Bombay, where he learns Hindi, Marathi and Urdu, moves to a slum, becomes a doctor, joins the Mafia, undergoes months of torture at Arthur Road Prison, acts in Bollywood, and fights in Afghanistan.

The story is fascinating, and is a testament to the strength of human will. More than the story itself though, what is impressive about this book is the language. The language is beautiful. He made me smell India, feel India, all over again.

Read this book. It is one of the finest books I have ever read.

Victoria Beckham was spotted shopping in Rome wearing the world's largest pair of pants. I'm guessing either she was having a fat day or she's decided to take up that paper route in Compton again.

More of Victoria Beckham and her fat man pants after the jump.

Synopsis: Factotum

Based on the novel by (and the life of) Charles Bukowski, 'Factotum' follows Henry Chinaski (Matt Dillon), whose fondness for booze, gambling and sex keeps him perpetually adrift. Henry occasionally attempts to work on his writing career, but his haphazard efforts yield him little but rejection letters from publishers. Somewhere along the way he falls into a relationship with Jan (Lili Taylor), a fellow lost soul who shares his taste for living on the edge.

This is playing at the Tara in Atlanta. WOOT! Go Chinaski!

Code 46 is a 2003 British film directed by Michael Winterbottom, screenplay by Frank Cottrell Boyce. It is a disquieting science fiction love story with many themes associated with the biopunk genre.

Good biopunk film. Tim Robbins doesn't suck in it.
