Nice one. what would you recommend if I loved l’ecume des jours (of course) but hated heartsnatcher?
And are there good vian-adjacent authors (witty, good imagery, but not as style-obsessed as queneau)? I like queneau in theory but he is a drag to read

I got the 40 Short Stories shown in pic rel yesterday. I was mostly checking if the library was full of groomer lit, since I live in a liberal college town. I've been looking to read short fiction. Almost all of my reading for the past few years has been non-fiction and just to extract the information I need for my studies. I want to develop into a more patient reader. But first, I need to start with training wheels, which doesn't mean Harry Potter but engaging short stories.

There are many ways to go.
The natsoc route is Hitler’s revolution, Hitler’s National socialism and toland’s biography of Hitler. All of these are as unbiased as they go. There are neither goybooks nor David Irwin.
You can go the philosophy route. Read some enlightment (not too much because it’s shit) and go to German idealism, something like Kant, Fichte, Hegel and then read Schopenhauer and Nietzsche again. Then it’s up to you wher to go from there.
You can read literature but the turner diaries man… don’t know. Mishima is great, his sea of fertility tetralogy was enjoyable. Maybe read some western canon. Maybe read the Russians.
If you liked the Greeks you can read their tragedies and comedies. Euripides, Sophocles, Aristophanes, Aeschylus, Menandros.
Anything really.

I'm not racist. If anything, I'm a racialist. It's probably over-complicated for modernity. Racial awareness is awkward if you're "White" and not apologetic about it.
On a more philosophical note, I don't know why I would want to be lumped into the servile Anglo-Saxon "White" race. The greeks and romans didn't even consider them civilized, or what the occident would care to refer to as "White". They're just "noble savages" ruled by Germanic families.

>natsoc
I've considered looking further into this because I have only really scratched the surface of the German 3p route and it's, at the very least, interesting to see a separate worldview from the two main dominating ones.
>philo
I really like metaphysics and Kant seems interesting. I checked out one of his books, and I'm considering at least reading his critiques. I'll look into this camp a little bit more.
>turner
To be fair, I'm not really interested in the Turner Diaries. I have heard Dr. William Luther Pierce's radio lectures and I think that's more than enough of a viewpoint into the "Cosmotheologist".
>Greeks
Man, the greeks are great. I saw a lecture back in 2022 about the Hibernia-Greek relationship and I'm really interested into reading what I can about both. An entirely new door appeared into history and people haven't heard much about it yet.

Leopold, Muir, and Grant would be shitting blood if they saw how bad things are today.

Not hardly a blip on the media radar, and these guys are so brazen about it.
Something else, before I fuck off for the night. I'm genuinely surprised that not a single one of these self-proclaimed "eco-fascist" groups never promote Aldo's work. I know more hunters that have read Sand County Alm than the guys who quote Mike Ma.

You might not be interested in it, but I would suggest you pick up The Passing of The Great Race since you've already been primed with the understanding of a racial elite by The New Nobility of Blood and Soil. The reality of the of the Anglo Question is that their population is made up of different racial elements, with the highest strata being of the nordic race. The English fought back against Jewish influence with Longshanks' expulsion and Mosley's fascism, the Luddite rebellion, their colonization and pioneer settlement of most of North America, and their overrepresentation in scientific fields shows that the revolutionary spirit still exists in the British. It is only that a few "men" allowed for their country to slip through their hands. The Passing of the Great Race should show you that the white (nordic) race comes from a single founding stock, and is only changed by the presence of other races in its nations, like the British found out.

The Greeks and Romans also sometimes found great respect for the "barbaroi". Tacitus records the culture of the ancient Germans in Germania, and at almost every step of the way, finds the cultural attitudes of the Germans superior to that of the Romans. The Greeks, too, often hired Scythians as guards, although this is probably a by-product of societal degeneration. My point is, if you were to put a noble greek or roman next to a modern low german, you would probably find that they share the same complexion, eye color, and build.
