How ‘NOW’ Brown Cows.

7th February, 2011  

Back in those heady days of 1985 ‘The Smiths’ posed the somewhat existential question, “How Soon Is Now?”. And having scanned the book shelves of greater knowledge during the recent Jan’ heat wave season I’ve concluded that the book publishing fraternity answered Messrs Morrissey & Marr with a forceful reply of , “Never Bloody Soon Enough”.

For the printed plethora of NOWness has come to dominate recent front cover sensibilities; the three lettered present seen in the contemporary marketplace to be about as commonplace as rotting Warholian  bananas at the base of a snotty infants school day rucksack.
