Submarine by Joe Dunthorne (Random House 2008)


"Ah ha," Chips says, finding a page upon which he cameos. He adopts a whiny voice that is a bad impression of Zoe: "Jean who works breakfasts understands. She says that I am very mature for my age. She says that she has had a fluctuating waistline all her life and it's never done her any harm. She says that kids can be cruel. I told her I felt like crying in Geography when Chips said: 'I bet you eat your dinner off a tectonic plate.'" Chips looks up.
"I forgot I said that."

Giorgio Chinaglia (Italy - West Germany '74)

Brought up in Cardiff, started his football career with Swansea and scored a shedload of goals for the New York Cosmos.

Random, but eerie.
