BIG News!


This month's "The Big Issue" magazine is a cracker; for just $5 ($2.50 of which goes to the vendor) the annual fiction special features tales from Christos Tsiolkas (author of 'The Slap', which I will get round to reading one of these days), Michel Faber (who writes a very charming story about a humble ticket collector on the London Underground), Karen Hitchcock and other talented Aussie writers, plus gorgeous illustrations and contributions from some of the vendors themselves. Highly recommended :)



A lovely whimsical drawing from Catherine Campbell whose drawings feature in this month's Big Issue and which are cut-out-and-stick-on-one's-wall-worthy
