Got these.
Leftmost is a collection of Chinese tales,dramas and short stories.(They were translated by the same person, hence his name on the cover.)
Middle one is "The Republic of Wine" by Mo Yan.
And the rightmost one is War and War by Krasznahorkai.

Judging by the first few pages it's pretty funny and lighthearted, if I may say that.
Not something I expected from something described as "post-modern".
It was one of those "what can go wrong?" purchases. Old Chinese literature becomes samey after a while, there are a lot of tropes. Not to say it's bad, it is rather comfortable to read actually, the "bureaucrat doing stuff" resonates with me, but it gets a bit tiresome, so I lay it down for a bit.

The sad thing to me is that many people (not just here) want to learn and become better people, but they have no chance against the overwhelming mass of works composed by the blind-leading-the-blind.

They want to understand the world and find satisfaction and meaning in life, but one can't just up and recommend lesser known works that possess the ability to lead the way forward. As Jesus said, "do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them. under their feet, and turn again and rend you."

They need to find their own way out of that pit of confusion. One can only hope that more people begin to wake up to what really needs to be learned, and that they find the strength to be willing to do what it takes to see things through (e.g. the Golden Rule).

You're sort of proving my point. Whilst, I'm all for reading for the betterment of one's self it's just...reading. It's not some transcendental experience of the soul. I read because I like to learn and figure out my place in the world (I mainly read natural history, non-fiction stuff) but I don't think I'm going to become a god if I read all of the most deep and brooding works out there. I do think that reading is objectively a good thing, but all you're doing is scanning your eyes across some text.

Right, the transcendental experience (and true understanding of the world) cannot be spoon fed through books, although many believe this to be so. It is most convenient to read something, agree with it, and have it shape your view of the world.

But unfortunately, this process does not have anything to do with the kind of transcendental or "higher knowledge" experience which provides the peace, satisfaction and control over one's life which many are searching for.

These matters are beyond the outside world and must be found within, attained by the various methods of internal focus that have been taught and preserved since ancient times.

Read Plutarch late, and get the 2 vol Modern Library complete edition.

He's surprisingly advanced/difficult to read, because he assumes his readers are already largely familiar with Greek/Roman history in general, along with the broad strokes of the biographies he focuses on. He jumps from era to era, skipping centuries without warning or warmup, and if you don't already know what's going on, you'll be lost.

He's "simple" in that his biographies are not particularly complex; they're personal and moral tweaks of existing stories. But simple ≠ easy, and a lot of people get tripped up by that.

Also check out Xenophon's Hellenika (aka Penguin's "A history of my time") for his continuation of Thucydides.

The Lovecraft collection is from Barnes & Noble. They have two Lovecraft collections one focuses on the Cthulhu Mythos and the other which, is what I have, is the complete fiction.

I'm looking to get a collection of Poe's works I'm just being picky about the cover. I might resort to one of Barnes & Nobles books but I find the covers are usually a little too gaudy.

The Painted Bird is so obviously not true that you'll be shocked anyone took it as K.'s real life story. Kosinski clearly hated the Polish gentiles, only about 1/3rd of the horrible things he writes about having seen have anything to do with WWII or the holocaust, the rest is just "look at what degenerate antisemitic monsters these stupid peasants are."

The way I recommend them to people goes something like this:

Book 1: I can recommend this to just about anyone who will stomach the genre and political atmosphere. It's a great book.

Book 2+3: If you LOVED Dune's plot, go ahead and read book 2 and then 3. They're tied, you really can't stop at book 2 (unless for some reason you hate it). These continue the plot, but don't have the same gravitas about them. The last chapters of book 3 start to get a little weird (anyone who has read them will remember the salmon) but it's tolerable.

Book 4: If you LOOOOOOOOVED Dune 1-3, consider stopping there, though no one listens to that advice. If you must, read book 4. It is very weird and different from the previous books. Ideas are present, some good, some bad. I have mixed feelings about this one.

Book 5: Please don't. Herbert is going through some shit in his life and it is bleeding into his work at this point. Little here is recognizable aside from a few references and a single character's name. Solid thematic deviation from the past.

Book 6: I've never met a person in real life who finished this book. I made it 70 pages in before I finally realized how much of my life I was wasting.

Book 7: Herbert died, thank god.
Read book 4 if you want, but my personal opinion is that Dune+Messiah+Children make a solid full circle trilogy. I can hesitantly recommend God Emperor to anyone who is starry eyed about 1-3, but it functions as the bridge to the egregiously inferior final two books, so I don't mind forgetting it exists.

I'm rambling, forgive me for not prettying up my writing but this is an anonymous image board and it doesn't really matter.

Yeah I agree with this. 1 can stand alone, 1-3 are a great trilogy, 4 is still very cool but VERY different and there's no guarantee that you'll like it if you liked 1-3; and if you DO like 4, it won't be for the same reasons as 1-3.

5 was fucked; I don't remember anything about it beyond being kind of confused. Never bothered with 6, let alone any of the offshoot novels.

Just finished Crime and Punishment, what should I read next? I'm just started reading this month, so sorry if my taste is shite. I kinda want to get a break from existentialism, so I was thinking about reading something that seems fun, and fantastical, like Tolkien, but idk. I also have an HP Lovecraft collection, and the Metro books.

Hemingway's existentialism is very different, the iceberg-technique or whatever you want to call his style makes the thematic aspect much less dense, and you obviously don't have chapter-length chats on religion/life/death/etc. like in Crime and Punishment or the Brothers K.
Personally I also think that Hemingway's simplicity gives some of his stories and almost fairy tale-like touch, he's definitely what I would read if I wanted something different from Dosto, although Hemingway might not be 'fun'. I wouldn't waste my time on Tolkien.

Seeing Murakami in the OP, I wanted ask, did anyone else consider Kafka on the shore to be at once entertaining and engaging (the old man's passages) but also dragging on and boring (Kafka's passages)?
I read it some 5 or so years ago when I was still in high school, so I would definitely see much deeper into it now, but I don't know if I want to give it another try just to see if it is or is not better.

Great. Easy to read and exciting, but dense with cultural, strategic and wider geopolitical detail. Lots of Russia vs East India skullduggery buying favours with local despots in Central Asia. Not exactly a great academic reference book, but the scholarship is of the quality you would expect from an Oxford Press publication

that reads is horrendously edited, i have to say. the redactions give you a very bizarre idea of freud's main argument in the longer pieces toward the end, which includes chic and discontents and is usually what people are looking for. the case studies are usually fine but you may feel lost for context because gay dumps a lot of freud's very astute observational writing

Not much, been buying since 2002 before he got as much coverage so I got the majority as normal priced when they were released. I have all of his books, CD's and zines and all of his collected works from Creation . I interviewed him and got a free copy of MINE when he put it out as well.

As someone how has been on the four horseman trane in my pleb years: The problem with him and most of the new atheists is that he still think and argues in terms of christianity as his nemesis. WHile Hitchens in his last days has seen the evil coming and tried to tell the world about the rethoric and tactics the left and muzzies use to silence the world, Harris is still irgnorant to the size of the problem. He still thinks in terms of religion (the comfy way to think about it, meaning as an purely ideology, which is a very european thing to do) while in reality the problem of the near east isn't to be solved with secularity due to the fact that 1400 years of Islam has already been inprinted in their genetic code (read about incest and resulting birth defects in muslim countries and those european one were they move). Giving muzzie countries the enlightenment while they have been degenerated to something around 85 IQ points (sweet spot for all the bad things) you will only get chaos (like the the Arab spring, where due to low IQ and a vacuum of dictators the most radical islam has won over).

And explaining this I only scrap above the surface of this topic which has far to many layers to explain here. Therefore people who think like Harris in his silly apologia of terror and muslims and their solutions are reddit tier, because facing the true would neccessitate the acceptance of inheritant differences making a statement about our current imigration as well as aid laws to he world. They just don't want to open that bottle and rather sit and die in their comfy safe space.
