This time we're going to design and make the actual chart!
If you want to recommend/remove a book, that's still possible! Look at the bottom of this post for the current standings of previous books and recommended books.
For rules regarding adding/removing works, check the start of the previous thread.

>ideas for the layout so far:
- Add indicators of rape, drugs, torture, pedophilia, etc. (In the shape of a capital letter next to the books? e.g. R D T P)
- Add dark/disturbing books of the same author that can be read as well, as an extra recommendation. (In brackets underneath the name of the author.)
- Add one link that goes to a page containing all the links of pdf's of hard to find books we can collect. (We can show which books in the chart we have links for by adding an * after the title of the book.)
- Dark layout? Matches the mood of the chart, but I also want to stand out to the previous chart.

I have tried to implement some in the draft chart (pic related), what do you think of it?
Any other ideas? Do you think the above features should be in the chart? What about the background/font colour? (I think the font should be brighter, to make it easier to read.)

We currently have links to:
Peter Sotos - Proxy
Pierre Guyotat - Eden Eden Eden
Michael Gira - The Consumer
Jesús Ignacio Aldapuerta - The Eyes

Peter Sotos - Pure (not on the list)
Pierre Guyotat - Tomb for 500.000 Soldiers (not on the list)
