From the novelist's site:

The phrase "the wire in the blood" comes from T.S. Eliots "Four Quartets". - "The trilling wire in the blood/sings below inveterate scars/appeasing long-forgotten wars."

As for the meaning..
In an interview Robson Green said the phrase "wire in the blood" was taken to mean a genetic kink, something impure and unusual in the blood, that leads to the kind of psychosis Hill might deal with.
Val McDermid says: 'Who knows what Eliot really meant by that line? Robson's explanation is as good as any... For myself, I've always taken it to be a metaphor for the thrill of adrenaline surging through the bloodstream. But we'll never know for sure".

I used to have Cinemax, so I've watched a fair amount of softcore. Usually because I couldn't stop watching the amazing gravity-proof implants passing as boobs.

At TESC, we'd get very stoned and watch hardcore porn. Usually gay porn, on account of the higher production values and prettier people.

I prefer written to visual, and the only visual that gets me going at all is girl-on-girl where it looks like they're really actually into it, and not prepping for the guy who's just off camera.

Thanks, ita (and Fay).

Heh. Me, too.

Fay, was it "Henry and June"...the not!crap porn with the twenties? Because I...uh, responded emotionally to that myself.

When I was looking for Season 3 of The Wire on Netflix the search brought up The Wire in the Blood and I considered renting it but wasn't sure. Now I'm intrigued and off to add it to my queue.

Emeline is so adorable!! she's got all these expressions, she's totally going to take over the world.

I love looking at Buffista babies (and kids). I think we need current Owen and Annabel pictures. And Lilly.

But movie fighting is exactly like real fighting, right?

It is the way I do it...

Hopelessly in love with ita.

I liked "Henry and June" a lot, too.

My dorm had a party every year when we'd show porn for hours on a screen in the courtyard. It was not, I think, high quality. One of the women from teh women's schol across the street used to do a running commentary on ho wbelievable the actresses orgasms were, but she graduated before my time, alas.

As for porn -- I've only seen a few movies. One was...well...I watched it with my then boyfriend and the movie put me off sex for a bit.

I love reading good porn -- whether it's fanfic or original or professionally done. and I like visuals pretty pretty pictures.

ho unbelieveable porn actress orgasms.

BWAH on the typo!
