It is great. It demands to be re-read though. There are some very overt themes and allusions (garden of Eden, Faust, Don Quixote, etc.), but it is also very subtle with concepts from Jung, Freud, Spinoza and the occult (to name a few).

Dubliners - I struggled to enjoy the naturalistic style and nuanced symbolism in some of Joyce's stories. A Painful Case was excellently evocative, definitely my favourite entry, with Counterparts and The Dead being most memorable to me out of the twelve other stories. Having heard of the complexity of Ulysses and Finnegan's Wake, I was content to find that Dubliners is accessible, though perhaps dry at times.
The Spy Who Came in from the Cold - Having heard great praise for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, I read The Spy Who Came In From The Cold with expectations met with apprenension upon reading that it is 'THE THIRD GEORGE SMILEY NOVEL'; my concerns that I would not fully understand the plot due to not reading the previous books were unfilfilled. Leamas' weary cynicism is a natural byproduct of his long career 'in the cold' and is a sharp contrast to Fleming's charismatic, confident and complicit Bond. His dissaffected attitude sets up the ending well and hints towards greater feelings towards Liz: hope, despite the knowledge that he can never really ever come in from the cold.
The Complete Stories Volume II - With the notable exception of Nightfall and The Ugly Little Boy, Volume II is suprisingly whimsical - even Sally, its implications bleak, has an air of silliness to it.
Ways Of Seeing - For the same reasons I was unable to easily understand the pictorial essays, Ways Of Seeing was interesting and enlightening.
Neuromancer - Compelling cyberpunk. Case's level of drug use altering the writing style was neat. I want to read more.

War & War was by a good margin both the most difficult and the most interesting, though the others were all good. I read the ending of that book more intensely than I've read anything in a very long time, I miss that feeling.

>Gravity's Rainbow
It was quite amazing, in terms of its scope, as well as the large number of references to different kinds of topics and themes, but I wasn't really able to understand where it was supposed to lead me to.
>The Old Man and the Sea
Good, simple, short.
>Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (it's the 3rd time I've had to re-read it for class)
Pretty good as an excercise on philosophy and logic, but not very good at actually explaining the way language works in real life. Wittgenstein's Philosopical Investigations are much better at this second point, in my opinion.
>The Ego and His Own
Before reading this book, I would have probably identified myself as an anarchist, or a Nietzscheian moral relativist, not too different from Stirner himself. After reading it, I have been absolutely convinced that social structures and rules are not only good, but that they are absolutely necessary for the well-being of all humans.

What do you think of the glass bees?

IMO, it had good insights into technology reshaping society, but it was a little underwhelming, and Jünger kind of does the Tolstoy thing of more or less affirming of traditional values

I found it okay, personally. He's clearly a very inventive guy, has an incredible ability to synthesize different topics under a kind of wacky urbane style and modulate between farcical and tragic. Not entirely for me though cause a lot of the time it felt tedious and overwritten, particularly part three. Everything about the fourth part is great though.

1) there's a core of critically acclaimed and board relevant books that most people will be exposed to and inclined to read due to their prevalence here and elsewhere and demographic factors. as more people read and post about them, more people will be exposed to them and tempted to read them and so on
2) you're glazing over the books you don't recognize and focusing on the thing you're looking to see. it's called 'confirmation bias'.

Yeah it didn't really do much beyond what one might expect of it (some of the parts about Zapparoni himself were interesting, I wish he'd gone more in depth into his character). But you also have to consider when it was written and the things that have come after it - the subgenre has been pretty saturated now that we have Black Mirror and even total normies are exposed to these ideas. Also I find it interesting that he was able to predict things like drones, increasingly immersive video media environments, etc. with some level of specific accuracy. The conclusion it comes to isn't anything new even for his time, but I think it represents a sort of returning to those values for him, since some of his earlier, pre-WWII ideas were pretty different from what he talks about in this book.

>>11210828
I won't pretend to understand every nuance but yeah the ending was incredibly powerful. Do you know if the website ever actually existed? I looked at it and it was 404'd but it seems like it's intended to be that way. I've read Satantango, which was also great, only slightly less so imo. Are his other two novels both on par with those? The book of short stories that was translated recently also looks interesting, he doesn't strike me as a writer who would be well-suited to a shorter form but I'd like to see what he'd do with it.

Yeah that one. It’s alright. Sometime boographies about great characters can be indulgent in their romanticism, but most of the time it’s fair. I’m an aspiring artist myself so learning about his technique and artistic obsessions has provided me with some new ideas and ambitions. Definitely worth reading if you’re already interested.

It was alright I think. Honestly, though, I probably only understood about like 17% of the actual story. I just really liked the sound and flow of the words, very flowery. The actual content of the story pretty much eluded me—though I tend to think that anyone who reads for plot is essentially an aesthetic philistine.

Just watch generation kill if you want to know the truth. Generally speaking officers are romaticizing Faggots who are in love with the idea of themselves as noble warrior-kings and they put an extremely rosy filter on whatever they write. Enlisted men tell it like it is.

Read "to quell the korengal" if you can stomach the poor writing quality. It's a real glimpse into a combat deployment.

Yep. I haven't finished them but I'm enjoying them so far. I really like the way Dostoevsky writes. He's good at making me empathize with the character. His dream about the tavern people beating the horse was A+.

Don Quixote is fun to read but I find myself blanking on big passages of it so I've taken a break from that.

Dracula is my favorite of the three. I find I remember pretty much everything I read which is rare for me, especially with older books. I'm waiting to see where the Anti-Semitism starts.

The furthest book I'm into is Crime and Punishment. I'm on Part 2 Chapter 3 right now.

Oh, this is a load of fun. I agree with you though. His late philosophy really illuminates everything that was going on in the Tractatus. I've only been through it once, so I wouldn't claim to know it well, but I think Philosophical Investigations is much easier to understand and appreciate after.

I read an hour of so of that the other day, going to pick it up again maybe after I finish For Whom the Bell Tolls.

It depends on what is meant by "philosophy", of course you can read the originals but from my point of view it's best to first get a general digression. For me as a newfag, it gave an overview of the subject. In some moments it was hard to read, but I managed

Going into Steppenwolf I had just read Ellison's Invisible man-->Notes-->C&P-->Quixote

Steppenwolf had its quirks, but after reading a series of books where the idealist/book-loving protagonist descends into insanity I feel like Steppenwolf provides a good reminder of the importance of putting the books down and living a little bit.
