Can I Borrow Your Toilet?

Some great art and writing from Gareth Brookes' new magnum opus. This 64 page book really is a jewel of the UK alternative press; nowhere else would one find a publication like this! I find it both heroic and touching that someone would devote such time and skill to a subject as mundane as working as a stockroom boy. The author accurately depicts the bewildering dreariness of unskilled manual labour, somehow making a book that's both hilarious and heartbreaking (and always entertaining).

Cheers, Richard. I shall treat myself to an early xmas present.
