For once I am pleasantly surprised /lit/

>>6468645
>>6468689
Oh shit, dolan and Penguinpleb are in union now? Bookshelf threads were shit, but now it's getting better

>>6469042
fuk u

>>6468645

Why do you post this cringe collection in every fucking thread? Why are you so desperate to showcase a bunch of random physics books? Nobody here thinks you're more intelligent or unique for it.

>stop ruining my precious literature board! >:(

stfu, fagot.

here's the man-moth sized books
(yeah mates I know that version of Dubliners is Tumblr-core but it has nice endnotes)

>>6469673
lul, u probly paid $20 for that shit fag edition of dubliners

>>6469680

I paid exactly zero dollars for it. I have a gorillian dollars of store credit at my bookstore. This version is nice but somebody annotated the Buck Mulligan out of it

>>6469697
:^D

>>6469737
aut1st, why don't you accept you're poor and will never have the proper 1st editions instead of shitposting arbitrary old ones?

Do you hate shelf threads and like to shit em up or are you just retarded?

>>6469788

>Do you hate shelf threads and like to shit em up or are you just retarded?

he has literally admitted that he's only a teenager i don't know why you're even trying to reason with him.

teens will be teens just hide thread if his teenage angst is too much to deal with. these shelf threads are always shit anyway.

Your girlfriend is cooler than you.

two things

>I'm 21, she's 25
>the bottom-right part of the glass cabinet shelf is mine

This was awhile ago.

>>6470154
What animal did that skull belong to?

>>6470159
It's a coyote. It recently broke, too ): the jaw is in two pieces now and a canine tooth shattered.

Haven't posted in one of these in a while, why not. I won't even censor my shitty shelves.

>>6468564
>>6468692
I never did read Don Quixote, but Dumas talks about him all the time and I feel like I should.

>>6468772
Please tell me that used sticker doesn't mean you had to read Ulysses for class...

>>6469673
What are those two books on the far right of that shelf? What do you use them for?

>>6469945
>>6469950
I like the old-ish Catch-22. Not the bright colorful cover you usually see. (I think your girlfriend has better taste in books though)

>>6470154
How old are those LotR/Hobbit prints?

>>6468564
This is how I roll.

>>6469801
good to see kent kennan getting some love

>>6470238
congradu-fucking-lations, you just posted the most disgustingly bourgeois bookshelf itt, please fucking drink bleach.

>>6470283
>drugs
lol, i used to scrape every particle of weed out of my grinder and scrape every little smudge of resin out of my pipe just for a hit. hahahahha, so retarded.

>>6470288
I try not to smoke weed
huxley is cool

>>6470297
lol, i had this glass pipe that collected shit loads of dank resin, i'd just heat up the pipe and blow air in it real hard and all the resin would just shoot out the bowl in one big gob. hahahahhah, sheeeeit.

>>6470238
Not him, but I have the same edition, it's 1978.
I never have understood the people that collect multiple versions of LotR.

>>6470348
that book is p legit but the rest are faggy as hell, especially those new everyman libraey books, lul.

>>6470348
I was just curious. I only have two copies, my decent hardbound one And a shitty paperback to thrash since I didn't know about pressing the bindings of hardbacks back when I got it.

>>6470365
I like the everymans set. They're cheap, clean simple and the fonts are nice. The only thing I don't like is the acryllic label on the spine that comes off.

>>6468772
>john fowles

my nigga, you read the french lieutenant's wife?

>>6470711
>my nigga, you read the french lieutenant's wife?
Have not read it. Would you recommend? I enjoyed both The Collector and The Magus.
>>6470238
>Please tell me that used sticker doesn't mean you had to read Ulysses for class...
Ummm, I picked the class because I doubted my ability to read Ulysses on my own and wanted help. (And to be honest I skipped The Oxen of the Sun chapter.)

>>6470751
OK fair enough. As long as it wasn't just thrust at you.

>>6469697
I am Buck Mulligan

>>6470238

dictionary for reading, literary terms for studying

>>6470751
Not the FLW anon you responded to but get The Ebony Tower by Fowles

>>6468564
>>6468645
not the original memeposters

>>6470123
Cuck.

>>6472067

damn I love the ETA sections

>>6472067
>IJ on kindle
>Typos

Disgusting.

>>6472231

what's interesting is that on the kindle there are links to the endnotes, which themselves have links back to the text, and there is little to no pause in between

>>6470238
literally reddit: the bookshelf

>>6472231

however, reading a hard-copy is better for your first reading of IJ, because of the 'flipping between endnotes and text simulates a tennis match'

>>6469673

man-moth?!

>>6468564

Quality over Quantity : )

>>6472469
just the bare essentials lloyd
