>buying physical books

I enjoyed Stoner a lot, but I lack the knowledge and context to say anything about the rest.
I'm reading other books right now, but pic related is the stack my dad just gave me. He knows I enjoy sci-fi and pulp so he keeps an eye out when he's at thrift shops.

good input ty

New books I purchased this month. Still a new reader.
Where do you get used books in India? I only know of the market in Delhi and I live in Central India. All the sites I've checked so far are trash and Library in my city is a joke.

>Notes from the Underground
That's a good one. The first 20 or so pages are really depressive. (The first part of the essay)
Be sure to read it when you are in a good mood.

Good stacks
Except for the stuck up pulpfag

Depends where you live, user. There are plenty of places in Delhi and Kolkata, but I'm clueless as to where you'd find used bookstores in central India. I assume you mean Madhya Pradesh?

momcore as hell.

>translated bataille
oh no, you were doing al-
>translated welbeck
no user what are you doing

These are nice little starter kits. The fellow who picked Ulysses should at least read the Odyssey and Portrait first, however.

I have the Pleaides edition of Bataille's novels and the J'ai lu paperback of Houellebecq's poems in the basement at my parents' house. I did not bring them with me to my current residence.

good stack 8/10

You are correct, Welbeck's fancy dribbling and ability to play nice flick-ons and second balls does not translate into clinical finishing in front of goal.

The used ones? Variety of places. I bought most in the United States, actually, but occasionally you stumble across vendors in India. You can get second-hand or illegally printed academic texts in places like Kolkata's College Street.

But now that I think of it, I can't think of awfully many places that specialize in used books. To be fair, most stores in India are so cheap that you may as well buy new--I remember purchasing a 1,000-page novel in Delhi International Airport that cost $30 USD but was available for only Rs 399.

PAPILLON !

Everything the man wrote in that novel wasn't true but damn good story

Yes, it's truly like he's telling you the tale in a harbour pub or a brothel.

I hope that pile of mediocrity one day falls and crushes you

gotta change this from /lit to /book collectors

If you like classics and you're a pervert you're in for a real treat with the Satyricon

Don't feel bad, user. I like the Vampire Chronicles and Mafia books when I was a kid--I don't say that to be rude, either.

Most of Yea Forums can't read, write or spell for shit, but will condemn anything that isn't Nietzsche, Ulysses or Greek. Books are for learning and enjoyment; there's no reason you can't veer toward one or the other.

If you can speak English then why would you ever read a translation of Suttree when you can just read it in English?

I currently lack the funds to buy stacks. I just bought Logo's book though. This is just what is next to my bed currently. Nothing unique except maybe the Fichte.
nice

Why dont you got money?

Read whatever you enjoy user its your life. I have to ask though... Did you only read Eye of the World? If not then why not keep it with the others?

>College student
>Spent all my summer job money
>The money I leech off my parents goes towards food
>Don't think I could handle working during the school year (lazy I know)

I am honestly fine living simply, and felt much less jealousy watching people travel and party over spring break than I would have in previous years. I am also graduating in less than two months so I should be getting money from my extended family. As soon as I'm done I want to go back to work, and I'll hopefully be an English TA in Austria this fall.

I really want that K-Punk book, just waiting for the price to drop a little before I pick it up.

>Falling for Yea Forums memes so hard that you immediately buy two philosophy books

I didn't say Plato and Aristotle were a Yea Forums meme, I said being "new to reading" and immediately jumping into playdough is a Yea Forums meme.

These are not LITERALLY the first books I've ever read lol

Ciao postatore italiano

c-ciao

based

I've read Blood Meridian in translation back when I wasn't proficient and I enjoyed it. Later on I've read The Road in English and I hated it, thus I purchased Suttree in German.
This might have been a mistake since most of the book is written in a specific dialect? Maybe The Road simply sucked ass.

Goddamn does that copy of Hamlet have every fucking essay written about it in it?

Would you recommend Negarestani?

There's a lot of notes and a few essays

How is it? I would like to get a good copy of my favorite play of the Bards.

all of this costed about $9

What language is that?

Latvian or Lithuanian?

It is evident that Reza put a lot of effort into Intelligence and Spirit and the central conceit about 'AGI' is an interesting one to consider. It requires a fair amount of secondary reading to fully grasp, and maybe a little bit of math and engineering knowledge as supplement.
