Also reading Tragedy and Hope Carroll Quigley.
ITT: Book you currently reading
100 pages left, will finish them off before I go to sleep. A really cozy read, sometimes too supernatural/outlandish for my taste but still very good. Next up is probably Kafka's Castle
Sorry for a late reply, besides A Confession there's also:
What is Religion and of What Does It's Essences Consist?
Religion and Morality
The Law of Love and the Law of Violence
Were you niggers pulling my leg when you recommended The Soft Machine? What the fuck even am I reading? 1/4 through and the whole thing has been like this. Dude gets high and runs around south america fucking brown gay boys with no punctuation. Fun as hell to try and read aloud though.
Are you reading it in nip?
I wasn't impressed with tanizaki. Naomi pissed me off and I got halfway through his short story collection without being taken in by anything. How's banana?
Here you go, also just finished it. I know the guy wrote a ton of stuff but this was a satisfying collection, I liked how they all felt loosely connected. Colo(u)r out of Space was actually probably my favourite, personally found it the most disturbing. The Whisperer in Darkness was also really quite creepy. I also enjoyed The Rats in the Walls, since the Cat's name was pretty cool.
Also thanks for the recommendation, I will keep it in mind.
but seriously it's like Yea Forums wrote a novel.
lmao haven't read this but I did read Naked Lunch and that was enough Burroughs for me. Pretty remarkable how good he is at writing the most fucking nasty degenerate shit imaginable. That book made me feel really gross and I felt like I needed to take a shower after every chapter.
Haven’t started yet, but will soon. Got it free with my girlfriends amazon prime.
I'm a pervert so it kind of turns me on, even when they're all shitting their pants on drugs and having disease ridden orgies. Doesn't mean I actually want to read a novel's worth of the shit. Only part I liked so far has been with the detective.
My god the gay orgies just don't stop. If I hated someone I would send this book to their mother with a card saying it's from them.
