Back in 1988 this was the original suggested reading list for the film
"Primiti Too Taa". These works may be hard or impossible to find
now, and so much has been written since.
This is the starting page of an updated reading list. The final
list will be extensive. The update procedure will be gradual and
on going
Please help by sending your suggestions of books, films music or other media
that you have found helpful or are in some way significant to Colin. .
