So the #BowieBookClub March pick has been announced: Puckoon by Spike Milligan published in 1963. Seems like a lighter, fun read. And it‘s available on BookDep! Whee! http://bit.ly/puckoon

LittleWonder Picked up my copy from BookDep two days ago. #bowiebookclub 7y
ValerieAndBooks I just now ordered from Book Depository! Glad you mentioned they had it. Amazon didn‘t have it new, only used and for a lot of money 💰! 7y

Life wasn't too bad. The trouble with Man was, even while he was having a good time, he didn't appreciate it. Why, thought Milligan, this very moment might be the happiest in me life. The very thought of it made him miserable.
