Interesting touch with the brilliantine. I thought of "Old Spice" and Brut - they signify the decades -

He looked at himself twice,
then splashed on his cheeks
Old Spice, it brought a wave
of memory that would have crashed upon his feeling of
vulnerability to the weeks left passing by,if she did not appear at the door, with the same incredibly beautiful smile on her face and looked at him without a single regret.

Ryosuke Saegusa do you think that as in the cinema where there were directors who appealed to the heimat of Japan and its psyche as in the case of say Ozu Yasujirō's films as opposed to the internationalist Kurosawa Akira that there is a similar divide in literature for domestic consumption and literature for the "West"? Or are those divisions passé?

Toby one could quite easily after "K" upset all those punters with an expectation that it will be "L..." and give them instead a number. But I suppose that is more the Douglas Adams' line of thinking. I agree re e-books.
