The Blackstuff, The (Paperback)

'The mind is like a creamy pint of Guinness-The head is the engine that drives you through the day-the fuel however lies in the blackstuff, in the darkness, in the depths of the unexplored cave which is your subconscious mind-this is the story of my journey through the blackstuff.' - Val Cale The Blackstuff is a true story of a road-trip that sees Val Cale in trouble in Japan, impaled in Nepal, ripped off at a vaginal freak show in Bangkok, nearly saturated by a masturbating Himalayan bear in the most southerly town of India and culminates in a mad tramp across the world looking for the ultimate blowjob and the meaning of life. The Blackstuff is not just a book. It is not just the opinion of an individual who feels that he has something important to say. This is a story which every last one of us can relate to, a story about the incessant battle between our internal angels and our demented demons. This is an odyssey to the liquefied centre of the brain, a magic carpet ride surfing on grass and pills, seas of booze, and the enormous strength of the human soul. The Blackstuff takes you beyond the beach, deeper into the ocean of darkness that is the pint of stout in your head
