New Novel: The List.// "Dance the Eagle to Sleep"

[Sean Mannion]

cigarettes?....
and...
books?...

...in the same package?...

shame i was born too late for that masterstroke of marketing genius - and to 
think all these years i could've been simultaneously smoking myself 
bronchial AND destroying my eyesight at a fraction of the cost! That's nigh 
a decade of Orwell's dillemma when it could've been so much easier...

...have to admit, though, it does sound like something liable to have turned 
up in Bloom's ramblings during the zoned-out bits of 'Ithaca' from 
Ulysses...
