Former ATF agent Jay Dobyns, author of the NYT bestseller "No Angel"

“I’m going to die here, in the dirt and the dust and the grime… and I haven’t even been on the job for a week!” Jay Dobyns’ own words as he talks to Peter about his time as an undercover agent with the ATF: an intense, hair-raising and moving story that Jay has now written about in the New York Times bestseller “No Angel: My Undercover Journey to the Heart of the Hells Angels“.  Jay is our guest on Litopia Daily all week: his compelling autobiography is a classic of the genre, on par with the stories of Frank Serpico, Joe Pistone (a.k.a. Donnie Brasco) and Joaquin Garcia (a.k.a. Jackie Falcone).

In today’s Write Report, Donna reveals that Random House are removing the text-to-speech function from at least 40 titles currently on the Kindle.  Good for Random House, we say.  And more dire news of book banning – this time, it’s Alice Walker and Toni Morrison who have offended the delicate sensibilities of the citiziens of Muskegon, MI.

In Eve’s Salmagundi Club, she reveals that UK television personality Jonathan Ross is starting his own Twitter book club – is this competition for his sister-in-law’s highly successful Richard & Judy’s Book Club?
