You're a "lesbian (probably trans and atheist) anarchist", why are you in a thread about Orthodoxy? I mean it's not like you are also a child of God, but what inclined you to come here when you obviously have nothing of value to say?

I was very much sucked in, more so than any other book I’ve ever read. I think the writing style is just hit or miss for most, people expect a typical story but the book turns into more than just that and really does capture a feeling of descending into insanity. I’ve tried with brother as well and he says he is reading it but I don’t think it got him.

I’m not so well-versed in postmodernists myself, Danielewski was my introduction to it. I’m very eager to read more if you have any suggestions though. I was brought up on mostly school literature and, while I did enjoy it, nothing has ever gripped me like HoL did and I would love to explore.

I fell asleep but thanks anyways guys, I'll look into them
>War by Other Means: An Insider’s Account of the War on Terror
>Diplomacy
>A World Restored: Metternich, Castlereagh and the Problems of Peace
They seem like good books, will order them when paycheck comes through.

>logical axioms
Even just skimming wikipedia will tell you he only ever proved it for self-consistent recursive axiomatic systems that can handle arithmetic operations on natural numbers.
That's math speak for: formally proving basic math operations and their results.
I fucking hate it when people who never had to take the most basic of math logic classes bring up Gödel.

Snuff wasn't so bad even though it was obviously not up to snuff.
Science of Discworld 4: Judgement Day however was downright bad and I wonder if he's actually that far gone or if the disc parts was written by Stewart & Cohen as well. The character's personalities and dialogues were all over the place, the new character and antagonists as well as the conflict itself was ridiculous in characterization and handling.

I was actually a bit depressed after finishing it.

>if it is written in french it's automatically more deep and artistic

Surrender-monkey's are the masters of pretense.
