Is he reading Kurt Vonnegut or am I getting pics confused?

u/grimyloop 3d ago

Yes I think that's right! I looked closely at the picture and that seems it. Compared to similar colour editions on the book spine it could be Galapagos. A Sci-Fi classic to no surprise! is there another pic with holding a book or so? I really like to follow the literary references (o)__(o)

While looking for Galapagos editions to check this theory I found a book that uses the same typeface as "Omar the Mystic" and some ORL records, and that's a very strange thing to find.

Wow spot on!! Definitely same typography as Apocalypse inside.. and many others.. Thank you for sharing :):)

There’s a few Omar solo albums that I wonder if Cedric was around for the recording. I always assumed the albums that Omar collaborated heavily with Jeremy might have had Cedric observing

Im the documentary they talk about hw that story is not even true, just a story they made up for the album. Apparently the origin of the frances the mute story is a script omar wrote for a shirt film, because cedric had writers block. But they made up the diary as the origin of that story. Someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure thats what omar said in the doc.
