I received a $50 giftcard for Amazon today.
I'd like to spend it all on books.

What would you buy?

i'd get the essential turgenev, the leopard, the ice trilogy, and uh, i guess dovlatov's the compromise.

Yeah I was thinking about this. I've read the e-version but want a physical copy because I feel like I need to read this thing at least 3 times to understand it.

I'll look it up, thanks.

Based on pic related, if you liked Lo, get Ada, it's better, and my favourite book ever.
