Incredible. Why can't my country be like this?

Really nice, especially that copy of the Marx-Engels Reader. I think they were going for >$50 on eBay AU last I checked. The O'Connor, Brunner, and LeGuin are all comfy reads. You couldn't pay me to pick up an Orwell though

>>21032770
>Marx
Cringe. Guarantee you're a pasty white loser wanna be Lenin.

Poe’s law is strong on this board. I can never tell if a post is sincere or a joke

I’m a middle aged manager at a mutual farm insurance company. I do have a bust of Lenin in my reading room though.

It's been a fruitful harvest and I'm stoked about the nuts I have stored for winter.

Beautiful Star sounds interesting, quite a departure from the Mishimas I've read.

Also waiting for Whitman LoA and I also preordered Penguin’s Conversations with Goethe by Eckermann that comes out Tuesday

>>21034309
I checked out a couple pages and idk if it's the translator or what but it feels a bit off, it'll have to have it's day in court though

Left stack all arrived in the mail today. Reading a bit of chapter one of The Plum in the Golden Vase it is very unique in structure, tons of poems, songs, aphorisms, cultural expressions. I hope the introduction helps in parsing it all, I know very, very little of Chinese culture.

Right stack is stuff I'm reading intermittently.

Meant to add that Kalevala is beautiful, so dreamy and wonderfully singsongy.

How's skunk works?
I need technical nonfic to at least be written in a gripping way or else I just won't pick it up enough

>>21034425
I'm only 40 pages in and it's been good so far, not terribly technical but it does enough to describe their goals and methods in building stealth aircraft. The story is told well and moves along at a good pace.

>>21033176

A Personal Matter is a favorite of mine.
