>The Spirit of the Laws by Montesquieu and A Nation Of Wealth by Adam Smith and synthesizing them together to get a full picture.
Is this really all i need to read to know about economics? I always thought you need to be an economic major or something. Also ehat are the prerequisites before reading them assuming im a complete novice.

Hello /lit/
I need help remembering a book I read in college.

I can't even remember the plot just bits and pieces.

>main character always acts like everything is fine even when everything is totally fucked up
>woman main character is in love with is pretty but gets railed by an entire army of men and by the end of the book her looks are faded
>some weirdo is often seen with the main characters
>at one point they come across a village with great valuables and jewels, but the natives don't seem to care
>protagonists take some jewels and put it on sheep but most of the sheep die or get lost.

the fuck is this?

> "Oh I read that last year, it's amazing, right?"

> we live in Whitby
> nothing but Dracula merchandise and goth stuff in many shops near the coast
> friend says "It's amazing that Bram Stoker set all of Dracula here"
> tell him "there's only a couple of early chapters set in Whitby, it's like a seventh of the book"
> he tells me to stop bullshitting and gets annoyed because he realises I realised he never read Dracula
> he didn't know that vampires can't handle garlic

This might not seem like much to most people on /lit/ but living in Whitby and not having read Dracula is kind of a big deal. People get a raging hard-on here for Dracula because there's one or two chapters of it set here. Shit's actually pretty annoying.
