AUSTRALIA LOVES JAMES DEAN, AUSTRALIA LOVES... CHAIRMAN MAO?

Ben Peek guest-blogging



On the bus I sat next to a nineteen year old guy with one ear. I wanted to ask him how he lost it. Knife fights, love, a tragic chainsaw accident... But by the time I had listed all the ways you could lose an ear, he had left. Outside the window the World had a decidedly odd bent and I watched it. It seemed like the thing to do.
