Since /lit/'s favorite of the month seems to be Guenon, are there any good biographies of him?

The only one I know of in English is "The Simple Life of Rene Guenon" by Charconac which is a very short and comfy read. I really have to emphasize the comfy part. Something about that book really just exudes the snugness of the provincial life of a small French town.

You've gotten really bored and decided to spam Guenon a hell of a lot again huh? Been a while since people REALLY trashed you for it hasn't it? What does Guenon say about your psychological condition, namely the unnatural obsession you have with spamming a website and pretending it's natural? What does Guenon think about someone so fundamentally deceptive? Are you happy with yourself?

no bro, very popular on /lit/ is Lolita, and Notes From Underground. some people have attempted to read Blood Meridian and failed. there is the occasional person asking if Ulysses or War & Peace is worth reading and never getting much further. then the rest have essentially glanced over the wikipedia pages of a few well-known philosophers. no-body here has read a book longer than 300 pages. guenonposters are a bunch of people who pretend to have read guenon, but are more enamored by the fact an ugly beta male retard with a neanderthal forehead has apparently written a book with words

Not only that but he's posting in another thread that OTHER people are spamming:

For some reason he likes to pretend to be multiple people on multiple sides of the "debate" he has going on with himself. Don't feed his disorder by replying.
