Fat Charlie Nancy is not actually fat. He was fat once but he is definitely not fat now. No right now Fat Charlie Nancy is angry confused and more than a little scared – right now his life is spinning out of control and it is all his dad’s fault. If his rotter of an estranged father hadn’t dropped dead at a karaoke night Charlie would still be blissfully unaware that his dad was Anansi the spider god. He would have no idea that he has a brother called Spider who is also a god. And there would be no chance that said brother would be trying to take over his life flat and fiancee or to make matters worse be doing a much better job of it than him. Desperate to reclaim his life Charlie enlists the help of four more-than-slightly eccentric old ladies and their unique brand of voodoo – and between them they unleash a bitter and twisted force to get rid of Spider. But as darkness descends and badness begins is Fat Charlie Nancy going to get his life back in one piece or is he about to enter a whole netherworld of pain?

Floatation Experience Feel your tension drift away with this floatation therapy session. Everyone knows how easy it is to float in the Dead Sea. Floatation is the best method of attaining the deepest rest that is humanly possible to experience. It consists of floating for an hour or more in a 10″ deep solution of Epsom salts, in a specially designed tank or room that eliminates all outside distractions. The solution is constantly maintained at the average body temperature of 98.4 degrees. The buoyancy of the salts solution allows your body to be supported on the surface of the water, giving the impression of zero gravity. The floating experience is not just an alternative form of rest; it creates a depth of relaxation not found in any other form of therapy. Even after just a few minutes of floating, you feel the wonderful effects. An hour long session is enough to emerge refreshed physically and mentally.

Lightbulb moment in the shower? Now you can put it to paper! It’s worth stopping to consider the ideas theories and world-beating strategies that might’ve been lost in the shower. Who knows what lost classic song John Lennon could have hummed whilst sudding himself and then forgotten? What literary masterpiece tumbled out of Shakespeare’s head because he was busy with the loofah? If only they’d had the Waterproof Notebook on hand to scribble down their precious musings! Thankfully this problem won’t affect you if you get your (sopping wet) hands on one yourself. By some feat of Jacobean witchcraft (probably) it’s perfectly possible for you to write your innermost thoughts on this shower-safe little notepad. Or just a note to remind yourself to buy some loo roll. Either way your days of bathroom-based memory-loss are numbered. Next time you’re struck by genius in the bath just jot it down on this little lifesaver.

Patrick Bateman is twenty-six and works on Wall Street; he is handsome sophisticated charming and intelligent. He is also a psychopath. Taking us to a head-on collision with America’s greatest dream – and its worst nightmare – “American Psycho” is a bleak bitter black comedy about a world we all recognize but do not wish to confront. “Serious clever and shatteringly effective.” – “Sunday Times.” “”American Psycho” is a beautifully controlled careful important novel…The novelist’s function is to keep a running tag on the progress of the culture; and he’s done it brilliantly…A seminal book.” – Fay Weldon “Washington Post.” “For its savagely coherent picture of a society lethally addicted to blandness it should be judged by the highest standards.” – John Walsh “Sunday Times.” “That the book’s contents are shocking is downright undeniable but just as Bonfire of the Vanities exposed the corruption and greed engendered in eighties politics and high living “American Psycho” examines the mindless preoccupations of the nineties preppy generation.” – “Time Out.”
