>> No.18480264

>>18480087
It's a collection of introductory essays and articles. I thought it was a good read, but I enjoy Johnson's work and own all of his books, so I might be a bit biased. It's a thoroughly un-PC take on Heidegger, so if that's what you're looking for I'd recommend it.

Stack implies that you got them all in one go through some kind of deal which is why they are just stacked ontop of eachother instead of neatly organized.

I am within 40 miles of DC and most books that I've gotten were between three and eight dollars. Do you not have a lot of bookstores or libraries in the area that they can go that high? Or are the prices the result of people in the area being book hoarders?
My shop has a B&N down the street, a couple college and faith bookstores sprinkled in the area, and a county library within a 5 mi radius.

Not sure, but the two closest book stores to me are the one where I bought all those books in the OP and a B&N. I prefer the former over the latter because it's bigger, there is a bigger variety, and it is a LOT less expensive. There was another used book store in my town that was a lot smaller that closed its doors due to covid, so I'm going to the big store now when I want to buy books.
