Will anyone on /lit/ be purchasing this?

I can see it being him describing how he saved the world and sucked G.W dick.

Should give a new insight perhaps?

I liked him
I do not have any interest in reading his memoir

As a rule I don't buy books with the author displayed on the cover.

Unless it's an Everyman hardback (which is no fault of the authors')

Clearly the superior glorified celebrity hardback.

The Sith Lord. I found this to be a piece of total trash.

>>1090131

No sir.

>>1090124

More of a political hard-back. It should just be interesting to get his views on much of this stuff. So far we've had Mandelson and Cambell's view. Gordon would probably be the best.

He was the one doing the dick sucking, and it was Bush's dick.

Seriously, I watched the Ghost Writer like a week ago. I honestly didn't know Blair had a memoir impending. Instead of buying this boring third way warmongering piece of shit, go watch the Polanski version. It's fucking brilliant. And I do mean at the cinema.

I won't be reading it, but fuck the people who insist on bitching him out for donating the money the book makes to soldiers. Studied cynicism was pretty badass when I was 14, but now it's really silly.

Whatever his motives are, a lot of good will come of that money.

Implying, it's what you'll get a lot of if you buy the book.

BTW: original third way here (Ausfag). Don't be telling me what I do and don't know.
