Here's a clip from the Submarine book launch: And here's clip from Homework 4 at the Bethnal Green Working Men's club. It's the sex scene from Submarine, which at ten minutes long, is in real-time: .. . And here's an amazing video for the German edition of Submarine. Ich Oliver Tate! More from HOMEWORK 3, this is the final section of the lecture we wrote on the experimental French writing movement: the OULIPO. After months of writing poems with only one vowel (Univocalisms) in an attempt to be accepted as members of the group, we are finally offered a chance to perform with them. But, things don't go as well as we hoped they might. Hilarity ensues. We have now printed the T-shirts for the "Don't Suppress the Y" campaign:

Hi Joe, Thanks so much once again! I really enjoyed listning to the Submarine extract - bizarrely perceptive and slightly absurd (like all the best!) I'll look out for it in the shops.
Good luck with everything, Zoe x

Yo, we’ve got a couple of new tunes up. They’re called Babycat and Galloping Foxley. They’re only demos, so it’d be cool to know what you think. Take it easy,

Hi love, your speed dating poem on thurs was wicked, just finished Submarine as well, really enjoyed it, I don't know why it reminded me of my childhood in Southport but it did. Can't wait to see you do your Oulipo stuff up in Liverpool, I didn't know you guys were doing the mercy night.
It'll be major fun! All the best, Eva x

Dear Joe.
This doesn't have to be a dedication. I just want to get my word out.
Your book Submarine was very well written. I bought 3 'Submarines' for Birthday gifts. And it was the best 90 dollars spent of my life. Well, temporarily. :]
I tried to read you book without putting it down. But Bathroom breaks broke my cycle. I also fell asleep with the book on my face and the light on and woke up at 4:00 am in the morning and said "Shit!" And continued to read it.
The next day I had a history exam and I failed it. But it was worth it. I promise. :]
You don't have to reply to this. But even if you say "Awesome" Or something along those lines, I would be very well pleased.
And if you were to sign my book. I would probably ask you to write this.
"Dear April, You live further than I thought. I don't know you. But I have a little love for everybody. So, let me love you a little bit, for buying my book 3 times.
Lovelovelove
Joe Dunthorne"

But something simple I'd also love would be:
"Cum-Tub."
I'll never forget that word.

If Submarine was a movie. That would be farr ouut; wicked. Thanks for reading. And thanks for your read. :]

My dedication would read:

To Lesley; Goddess in mortal form
Here is a signed copy of my wonderful, eccentric but totally enjoyable book that you enjoyed so much. I wrote it just for you, I identify with you so well and knew you would love it. I am currently working on my second one dedicated to your wonderous beauty and your mind-blowingly creative personality.
All my love
Joe x

(Well after all it is MY dedication!)

Our dedication would read:

Dear Liars' League,

You remember when I sent you all those short stories that you just IGNORED or made HURTFUL ENCOURAGING COMMENTS ABOUT and I SWORE REVENGE?

Well, here it is! SUBMARINE is my revenge on YOU! Read it and WEEP! HA! BET YOUR (sic) SORRY NOW!!!

Joe

P.S. I'd still really like you guys to perform one of my stories! Any chance?! You really are great. I was a bit drunk when I wrote the stuff above! Sorry.

try ...

"Hi Luke,

Here's another copy of my book Submarine. It's got no actual Submarines in it, so ultimately it's a bit of let down. It also uses the phrase "dial-up modem" in the second sentence, even though it's set in 90s and you wouldn't have referred to it as a "dial-up modem" just "a modem." This anomaly is still present in the hard back despite your pointing this out to me during the editing process. I'm such a duffus, but i know that you love me unconditionally. Read the book again and cower at my genius. It really is "such a clever book."

Love Joe
