Great news, punters: Lindsay Perigo's new book The Total Passion for the Total Height is now available on Amazon for Kindle. Get it here!
This is the first collection of Perigo’s writing, on everything from religion to politics to opera. Just as Perigo can light up the switchboard on talkshow radio, this work will light up the mind of its reader because, as Wimbledon finalist and friend Chris Lewis says in the Foreword, "he's going to make you think."
Those who value thinking and an independent spirit will find a unique source of personal fuel as they follow Perigo's evaluations of the philosophical landscape, his no-holds-barred aesthetic and cultural commentaries, and his accounts of his heroes.
Those comfortable with the status quo, with consensus-building, with further political extension into private life, will find a worthy opponent and may risk conversion.
Subtitled 'Life, Liberty ... and the Pursuit of Their Enemies' it is salvo after passionate salvo for the advance of liberty and reason. Boldly militant and genuinely caring, like a Mencken or modern-day Voltaire, Perigo challenges the status quo with wit, intelligence and urgency. He clears away cant. He speaks from mind and heart. He wants to change the world.
Grab it here.
(NB: Kindle book reader software is available free for Mac, iPad or PC. A quick Google search will take you there. eg; search for 'Amazon Kindle for PC')

Being an old-fashoined prick...dare I ask whether it'll be available in book form?

Perigo has done more to damage your cause than any other single person, he comes of as some kind of ancient curmudgeon, stuck in a parallel universe. His 'witty' name calling (e.g. 'Obamarx') simply comes off as infantile. He makes great talk back fodder, but I'm not sure it's winning anybody else over. The guy who writes 'Liberty Scott' is a thousand times better.
"Perigo has done more to damage your cause than any other single person..."
Well, he speaks very highly of you.
I'd have to concur with cheesefunnel. Perigo is a pompous twat with comical delusions of grandeur.
