Meant to post a while ago.

Good book, well written in a distinctive multiple perspective style. Some dark humour and a good tale.

and another...story of a chef from start to finish, incredible excess and eminently readable. Changes your perspective of Mr Bourdain if you've ever seen his shows.
I'd recommend both.

Good stuff, post back if I've mislead.....

Finally made a start on Catch 22, then after that 1984, was feeling a bit clever.

Mgmt wise, after Coveys 7 habits, I bought the 8th Habit on a whim from an airport bookstore....it's actually more accessible and quite good.
