That's a hard one to answer, depending on you definition of arty-farty, but on a scale of 1 = Sven Hassell and 10 = Finnegan's Wake, I'd say it's a five. It's by no means a highbrow literary or experimental novel, but it's beautifully written, and is far from a basic plot propped up by cardboard characters and a few action scenes but no depth at the other end either.
 
The Trusted Mole

About the Bosnian war, he drank in one of my pubs years ago and only just found out he wrote a book.

So far I’ve read,

Beastie Boys book and Gordon Ramsey’s autobiography.

I might start on a book about Peter Sutcliffe to cheer me up.
I started the Beastie Boys one on holiday last year so I think I'm gonna finish it.
 
I started Peter Crouch's 'How to be a Footballer' a couple of weeks back to be light reading on the plane journey to Cyprus. A lot has changed since then but I've still only read 10% of the fucker despite a promising start.
