Title: Smell Of The Fart...
Product review: If you've never read an Iain Banks book, don't start with this one. If you've become a "Culture" fan from other books by Banks, then this may offer some early insight into the "Culture". The story itself is dull and dated. The charatures thin and, at times, silly. The other short stories in this collection are best left unread. Don't get me wrong, I loved other books by Banks such as "Player of Games" and "Use of Weapons", but this early collection wasn't worth the effort.
