Starting on my heart is a chainsaw. The Barth I've had for months and it looks intimidating. I already read two big pomo books this year (IJ and Underworld) and I'm a little exhausted of difficult reading

Current reads: almost done with New York trilogy, it's increasingly gotten better with each story.

Herodotus is fucking great and I wish I'd have read it a couple years ago when I got this book. The maps are fantastic Does anyone know if this thucydides is as good? I've heard the translation kind of sucks.

>>19039792
You know what people mean by "flow well"? Whether or not it reads like a tweet or an instagram post. Their middle-school reading level is not to be the barometer for good prose. Read the first section of various translations and decide what feels most appropriate to you.
