Good luck on The Dying Grass op! I love vollmann’s shorter stuff like Whores for Gloria, but i get filtered by historical fiction however fictionalized.

there is nothing more egostatistical than posting your stacks in stack threads. why don't you just read the book rather than post a picture of your stack, watching the thread, waiting to get a (you) for that quick hit of happy chemicals.

A truly exceptional and persuasive post. Everyone take heed, this poster will single-handedly reform this board. After this thread dies, there will never be another Stack Thread or Shelf Thread or any other thread in which someone posts a picture of their books. The minds of everyone using this board have been irrevocably changed thanks to this great, thoughtful, and most importantly, steadfast anon. What is his end goal? We simply cannot question it, simply have faith and do as he says. Surely he has enough faith in himself to believe he isn’t just pissing in the ocean, he is truly accomplishing something here. I will remember this day forever, in which the reformation of this board began.
