I confess I haven't read the original novel myself - just couldn't make headway up that awful river but I feel as if I know it through repute and because of Apocalypse Now. So, it has been a pleasure - albeit a dark one - to read it now in this way.
I really recommend it - as do several other people. Antique Beat has a limited number of first edition copies signed and dedicated by Catherine.

The film brings to mind Sheri Tepper's The Family Tree, a nice ecological revenge fantasy. Wonderful collaboration.
I could never get into Heart of Darkness either!
Will have to investigate.
I've only just heard the Atheist Hymn from your other new project, and am very much loving it/ looking forward to an album. Sounds great. I went along to the Pope protest (with a Fr Ted style placard 'Down With This Sort Of Thing') yesterday and had a great time.
Yes Catherine's work is exquisite. I have a list of books I have been repeatedly unable to read - so now I am hoping that someone will make them into graphic novels.
Paul, I am actually an agnostic but my sympathies lean towards the sceptical. Which reminds me, I was once in love with a philosophy student who didn't even know I existed. Worse, she could prove it..
The Lazarus Plane Crash album will land early 2011. It really is something!
I can not wait for that Lazarus Plane Crash album.
Also, quited enjoyed that quip about the philosphy student -- it's like grad school all over again (though once was enough for me.)
Jane, as the late great Des O'Connor said:
"People laughed when I said I was going to be a comedian. Well, they're not laughing now."
I used to describe myself as a pessimistic agnostic, but feel like I've 'seen the light' with my atheistic outlook a couple of years ago. I suppose it's a bit strange being so convinced about something you shouldn't be convinced about, but it (unfortunately?) just seems to make the only sense. Still a fun topic to debate though.
Yes it's really great that people are coming out and saying 'I am an atheist" - especially if you are over 18.
There is more at stake in putting yourself on the line that way
