After falling off my bike on Tuesday resulting in a mangled up mouth and thick lips I’ve been pretty miserable, but today I have some great news! Marjane Satrapi’s book ‘Persepolis‘ is being made into a 100% hand-drawn animation. The Independent have the word here. She is brilliant. If you haven’t read these books you simply must! They’re easy reading for anyone interested in women/Islam/Iran/fundamentalism etc etc.

Now for something totally off topic — Lebanon. I have nothing to offer. Hit up Lenin! PEACE.
