Cheesy Wotsits & the History of Western Philosophy by Brian West (AKA Brian Luff)
“Jean-Paul Sartre had eyes that looked in different directions, so you never really knew in which direction he was philosophising.” This book is about nothing. In mathematics there’s only one way for nothing to exist, but there are an infinite number of ways for there to be something. So “something” is therefore more stable than “nothing”. Which means that the more cluttered the universe is, the more stable it becomes.
Does this mean that clutter is good? Brian Luff sets out to prove that it does. Along the way he walks us through a card-carrying Philistine’s view of Western philosophy. There’ll also be football, internet dating, yoghurt- making and hundreds of bags of low fat cheese puffs. Plus, how do you play the game of Pogs, and what constitutes the perfect piece of toast? If all this sounds a bit complicated, don’t worry, he dumbs it down quite a lot. Cheesy Wotsits and the History of Western Philosophy will change your life for at least ten minutes.

Juiced Lucid & Other Stories by Brian LuffIn this brand new anthology a number of successful audiobooks by Brian Luff are for the first time released in the form of good old-fashioned printed words. One of them, “Don’t Cry for Me Ricky Villa” has been downloaded from iTunes over 50,000 times, and covers the period when Brian worked as a sports journalist – an experience that also came in very handy while writing the Olympic Games fantasy “Sex On Legs”. The story “Stinkfish” was written more recently while Luff was having what he describes as a depressive episode while working for a creative agency in London. The unfinished and booze-soaked “Melton Thornaby” diaries are part of a fictionalised blog that Luff created while working as editor of the BBC’s offical comedy web site.

The Sixties Were Crap: The Life &Work of Legendary Rock Poet Quentin Carnaby by Brian LuffMilton, in his preface to Paradise Lost, complained of “the troublesome and modern bondage of rhyming… the invention of a barbarous age.” This is of course total bollocks. Had Milton had access to a modern rhyming dictionary in which all the words are listed in reverse alphabetical order, he would have realised that writing poetry is, in fact, a piece of piss. This is an abridged collection of the work of Luff’s infamous rock poet creation Quentin Carnaby. The book also contains a brief history of Carnaby’s life and an exclusive interview with the poet.
