Lipstick Traces : A Secret History of the 20th Century (1989), pp. 147–148.

It was most readily defined in the negative: not this gap between the heaven promised in the new advertisements and the everyday satisfactions I can buy.

Not this mad conviction that I’m a stranger in my own home town, that at work I feel like a machine, that in the park I feel like an advertisement, that at home I feel like a tourist.

“Van Morrison remains a singer who can be compared to no other in the history of modern popular music.”
