<\/em>Not for a long time. I could probably do the first couple of lines: Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone \/ Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone \/ Turn out the lights? And with muffled drums \/ Something, something \u2026 let the mourners come. There you go. Terrible!<\/p>\n
In <\/strong>Steve Coogan<\/strong>\u2019s Paul Calf\u2019s Video Diary, your character praises <\/strong>Orson Welles\u2019 The Trial<\/strong> for its \u201ctremendous energy\u201d, while Paul says he would \u201crather watch Dave Lee Travis playing Macbeth\u201d. What\u2019s your actual opinion of The Trial [by Franz Kafka]? <\/strong>AdrianH1<\/a>
<\/em>God, it\u2019s a long time since I\u2019ve read that. I read a lot of those books in my younger days, but probably, like a lot of people, even those who are graduates of English literature, I\u2019d be hard pushed these days to tell you what it was about, other than the persecution of some minor character.<\/p>\n
