Question PF in Fiction Books/Novels etc.!!

Vikram Seth's epic sonnet "The Golden Gate " [its an ode 2 80s Yuppies]
has this Verse:-[QUOTE]
" He goes home seeking consolation,
Among old
Beatles and Pink Floyd;
But GIRL elicits mere frustation-
While MONEY leaves him more annoyed .
Alas! He hungers less for money -
Than for a fleeting Taste Of Honey ,
Murmurring ;
..Money, its a gas....!
The Lunatic is on the grass ,


He pours himself a beer ;
Desires and reminescenses intrude
Upon his unpropitious mood ;
Untill he feels that he requires

A one way ticket to ride-

and - soon
Across -
The Dark Side Of The Moon !!"
[/UNQUOTE][BR]Others are Fay Kellerman's Novel ?? & Mo Hayden's too + Peter Irikin..May be u know where else??

A Taste of Honey is an old Beatles song. Might want to underline that, too.

Speaking of books, I saw some Pink Floyd biography-like books at Borders today. One was a little story/background/explanation behind each song, another was a biography, another was about every single show they ever produced, and another one was about every single press article about them. Cool books... unfortunately $15 each.

Nick Shaffner's Saucerful of Secrets is all you need.

Exclamation U ALL GOT IT ALL WRONG !!!

This is not about BOOKS ON FLOYD,but Books written by authors in which PF is MENTIONED(eg.In BIRDMAN=he put on the pink floyd song,while driving,he liked it,the music made his mind sooth...!)So plz abort writing @ bios or books ON PINK FLOYD,just write @ books in WHISH THEY ARE MENTIONED or APPEAR!.
In the August 1998 super special Collectpr's Iassue of MAD mag ,they wrote "All in All its just another schtick on the wall" on the editor page with brick wall bkg and so plz understand what its all about.
