I'm having a hard time reading this, am I retarded?

Did you jump into it with no background material? Read Guenon.

It isn't a pleasant read. I don't know if it is the translation, or just how Evola writes, but it is very stilted and awkward, with strange seemingly misplaced emphases that can make it tricky to pars at first. It gives the writing this jerky, disjointed feel.

The content, however, is relatively simple, but unless you see how it all fits together a lot of it seems....arbitrary, tangential.

What books by Guenon would you recommend?

>> No.20005626

If it's your first Evola i recommend starting somewhere else
i'd say Handbook for right wing youth

Depeds on your background, if you went from Harry Potter to this you might be.
