WHY I DON'T READ AL KENNEDY
Via Laban Tall this hilarious dissection of AL Kennedy's latest burst of hallucination. Personally I have only managed to read a single of her columns front to finish. That was the first one I ever read, shortly after I started reading the Guardian on a daily basis about two years ago. Since then I have occasionally tried to read them as a sort of test of mental toughness, but I'm simply not up to it; I never make it past the first paragraph. Her writing is filled with so much wrongness and outright nuttiness that it is quite literally painful - and to be honest I can think of better ways to get a headache.
