Sir Stevo Timothy ✒ answers thirteen questions in Booker's Dozen

TPQ: What are you currently reading? 

SST: Currently rereading The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat by Oliver Sacks. 

TPQ: Best and worst books you have ever read?

SST: Best: Vilayanur Ramachandran: Phantoms in the Brain. Worst: My college reading list! 

TPQ: Book most cherished as a child? 

SST: Without a doubt Roald Dahl's The Fantastic Mr Fox 

TPQ: Favourite Childhood author? 

SST: That would have to be Roald Dahl 

TPQ: First book to really own you? 

SST: Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time. It absolutely enthralled me to dig deeper into the mysteries of the universe and the nature of being. 


TPQ: Favourite male and female author?

SST: My favourite male author would be Roald Dahl once again. I'd go really old school with my favourite female author, as I'm horrified that I don't have many, with Mary Shelley. 

TPQ: A preference for fact or fiction? 

SST: I'm a fact junkie. All science, philosophy and anthropology. 

TPQ: Biography, autobiography or memoir that most impressed you? 

SST: A Beautiful Mind by Sylvia Nassar. A fascinating insight into genius and madness and the interlinking both. 

TPQ: Any author or book you point blank refuse to read?

SST:  Romantic Fiction. Never! 

TPQ: A book to share with somebody so that they would more fully understand you?

SST: Nietzsche: Beyond Good and Evil. 


TPQ: Last book you gave as a present? 

SST: I think it was a Scottish crime fiction book. 

TPQ: Book you would most like to see turned into a movie?

SST: Ego trip. My own story. 

TPQ: The just must - select one book you simply have to read before you close the final page on life.

SST: To Kill a Mockingbird. I'm ashamed to say I haven't read it.

  1. Enjoyed reading this, very much. Unashamed to admit that Mary Shelley would be mine. With you on romantic fiction although Wuthering Heights is an amazing powerful story that no matter how many times you read it you'll be spellbound (not a SATB reference @christopherowens)
