THE MISSING LINKS
 A great new tune from disco punkers Flowers in the Dustbin: "Anarchy Panky (We're the 1% Who Don't Fit In and We Don't Care)". * A review of Daren King's Jim Giraffe: "Through acrimonious banter and relentless mockery, Jim exhorts Scott to defy sexual repression as an unorthodox cure for brain cancer. He claims to be Scott's saviour and shares gems of jungle sex etiquette: 'take her from behind, then run away'." * Carbon/Silicon don't seem to want to give us an interview, but don't mind talking to the big guys. Tony James: "We started talking about it 10 years ago, about how to do a grown-up group. The premise was: wouldn't it be great if Jack Nicholson formed a group? He would still be rock'n'roll and he wouldn't have to get a wig or the Botox." Mick Jones: "'I'd forgotten what was great about rock'n'roll. I got so fed up with all the people who didn't know anything about music,' Jones says. 'But then I nearly died twice, with chicken pox and pneumonia, so I had this revelation. I'd spent 20 years in a subdued state, not writing, but I realised how selfish I'd been. It's not about you, how great you are or how great you used to be. It's about what you can give to other people.'" We'll see. * A profile of Ismail Kadare. * A new (British) Be Your Own Pet site. * Nicholas Blincoe agrees with Kingsley Amis: "if you're selling pessimism, keep it short, rude and funny". * French vanity publishing hoax. * Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped is chosen as Edinburgh's Book of the City. * Nerve's Henry Miller Awards. * Jonathan Coe on BS Johnson. * Classic London cafes in Time Out. * An Italian librarian gets into trouble because of Virginie Despentes. * Sandy Pearlman at Meltdown. * Well worth checking out: This Is It Magazine. * Everyone's talking about the LA Weekly profile of Houellebecq but have you read the Romero one? * Francis Bacon goes for a song. * More acts lined up for Clerkenwell 2005. * Check one: Penguin goes Ali G in more literature and musical collision. * Meet the author. * Ivor Cutler. * Disorder Magazine. * Blogebrity. * Summer reading. * Hampstead Heath (London)'s The Writer sculpture. * "New" Sappho poem. * The Music Blog Network. * Two interviews with Ben Marcus (one of HP Tinker's favourites). * The Test Card Gallery! * Moleskin Modality. * Julian Barnes's Arthur & George reviewed. * Short stories galore. *
