    The diving board that goes through the window? It's been a pretty permanent fixture for 27 years and I believe it was there when I last visited - though I'm also pretty sure I've seen the room being used for other things, with the board removed. Or were you thinking of something else?

    Definitely one of my favourite spots here. And no matter what's on show at the museum, I always feel the place itself is worth a visit - the architecture, the garden around it, the placement by the sea.

    Yevgeny Zamyatin: We, 1924. "It goes without saying that this has no resemblance to the disorderly, unorganized elections in ancient times, when - it's hard to say this with a straight face - they couldn't even tell before the election how it would come out. To establish a state on the basis of...

    No I haven't read it, but I've read about it when reading about science fiction: Moorcock was probably the most influential writer/editor on the new wave of SF, on the UK side of things. Last year I did read his also very weird The Final Programme, which was released in the same, psychedelic...

    HG Wells: The Island of Doctor Moreau, 1896. "To this day I have never troubled about the ethics of the matter. The study of Nature makes a man at last as remorseless as Nature. I have gone on, not heeding anything but the question I was pursuing." A direct and worthy descendant of...

    Mary Shelley: Frankenstein, 1818. "No creature had ever been so miserable as I was; so frightful an event is single in the history of man." Back to science fiction, going chronologically through the books I've accumulated over the last year or so. This being the earliest, and by Brian Aldiss...

    Michael Moorcock: The Sleeping Sorceress, 1971. "And so I die," Elric murmured. "Well, I suppose I do not care..." Next in line was this, a short novel consisting of three parts - the first nearly reaching Robert E Howard levels of greatness, the last seeing Elric joining forces with two other...

    ^ Nice editions! And yes, just those six stories are what I'm after. Adding the second volume of the Saga Press hardcovers will accomplish that. Only other sword & sorcery author I'm interested in after this is Karl Edward Wagner, but sadly he's out of print.

    I love this one - the scene on the bridge is spectacular. And great soundtrack by Tangerine Dream - who also made soundtracks for Michael Mann's Thief (1981) and his The Keep (1983) and one of the two soundtracks for Ridley Scott's Legend (1985). The original version of Sorcerer, the black &...
