I'm only 4 short chapters in but I'm already wondering if this is going to be my favourite book of all time. Ignatious J Reilly seems like a cross between Yossarian and Withnail. It is just wonderful and I wanted to share it with however will listen. It is hard to believe that the author took his own life because he couldn't find a publisher... how did these people not like it? As soon as it was published, it won the Pulitzer Prize.

Aka 'The Scribbler'. Fresh and fun work from the man who used to live in the flat upstairs. In London, you're never too far away from a designer of some sort. We're like rats. Dan could probably draw a great illustration about that.

— Always With Honour
Anyone who buys Monocle will probably recognise the great work by Always With Honour. But they've obviously done a whole lot more than that and it's simple, beautiful and effective... and varied.

I think it must be the great weather we're having in Britain which made me think of these photographs! Enda is a fantastic photographer and he's a good guy too.

The illustrator 'Mr Bingo' and his attitude to getting paid. It's one way of putting it.

Yes she makes brooches but she mostly makes great paintings and drawings. I know she would love to do more illustration work too... I think there is a real illustrative potential to her work.

This guy's work has just appeared in the foyer of my building and it makes really refreshing change. It's bonkers but I really like it.

Apparently there are good reasons for a designer to move out of the big city... a less client-lead life for one. I think I might do that, and as for the house... I think I'll get me one of those too.

Just getting some ideas you understand. Nice selection of old images on Life.com. And look how beautiful Mia Farrow was!

This does look very lovely and very tempting indeed. It is a limited edition box set for £200. Kai and Sunny actually produced the work first and then got David Mitchell to write a story based on the illustrations, or David Mitchell in a sense, illustrated the images with words.
