Lig In Japan
More issue from the spike wordnozzle:
Peter Robertson’s review of Tununa Mercado’s In A State Of Memory - a memoir of exile, as well as Teaching English In Japan - A Quick Guide. If you’ve ever pondered living and working in Japan, this thumbnail sketch of how to go about it from Lindy Sinka, who’s been in Tokyo for three years, should set you off in the right direction.
Also - the rejig of spike’s pages continues apace. I’m currently in the midst of changing every spike page from the last eight years so that it’s all in the same template. This will make the site easier to use and easier for me to make changes across the board. Besides tripping over some absolute code abortions whilst fiddling around in old pages, have also been enjoying re-reading some of the gems contained on this site. Take a peek at the newly rejuvenated Hubert Selby interview, Super-Cannes era Ballard interview and these reviews of Borges’ The Total Library and Tom Baker’s autobiography.
