Why have you got Jarvis Cocker plugging, via Faber, his book comprised of his song Lyrics. ? I thought your company sold clothes and lifestyle, its all becoming bizarre. If you want to change stuff go into real politics,don’t just play at it , its not believable and feels synical.

Hello Jane,

Thank you for your comment. You are right, we do sell clothes, and homewares. But Toast Travels is the place where we explore our interests and enthusiasms beyond our own world. We posted the film of Jarvis Cocker talking about his new book simply because we like him, his music and his lyrics and found the film of him interesting, as we do the book. We also like much of what Faber & Faber publish. I don’t think we suggested anywhere that we posted the film in order to ‘change stuff’ as you seem to have understood. That said, there is certainly plenty in the world that, in our opinion, should change, but I’m not sure that means we should become politicians. Otherwise everyone with an opinion should get into politics, and surely there are enough politicians already, don’t you think?
