This land

Written by:Stephen Mitchelmore.

I was going to write a little blog about the odd books in the backroom of the remaindered shop I frequent. There’s not enough room for three people in there, but it’s great cos all the books are �1 each. I saw a book on Albania, a massive tome on the theory of solids,  Michel Butor’s The Spirit of Mediterranean Places and Joe Jackson’s autobiography (which was shrink-wrapped, otherwise I would have searched for mention of the home town we share). But as I couldn’t remember the titles, I didn’t write it.

So, as an alternative, here’s a fun pre-election animation based on the Woody Guthrie song This Land.
