Re: biographies.
I really enjoyed this book, but I had a keen interest in surrealism too.
[COLOR=DimGray][COLOR=Black]Revolution of the Mind: The Life of Andre Breton[/COLOR] [/COLOR]by Mark Polizzotti

funny stuff in it - must have been crazy to run with this pack.

I just got Redemption Song - bio of Joe Strummer. Mostly I got it
becuase of a line from Damien Hirst's book "a funny thing happened on the way to work today". Joe and Damien are sitting around talking about his big shark sculpture and Damien get's around to asking Joe what's the biggest thing he ever killed after being quizzed by Joe about killiong the shark. Without hesitation Joe answers "my career". Made me want to read up on this guy, had me laughing hard.
