>Nikoli Gogol - Dead Souls (Easton Press)
Honestly, you should have found a copy of the Guerney translation of Dead Souls. It's the only one I could find any trace of humor in, at least in the earlier chapters. Other translations fell quite flat.

That's literally what the translation is though. I saw that Vladimir Nabokov praised the translation himself.

>Capital in manga
It's not manga if it's not made by the japanese

You could have done something more useful with that money and you know it, you gay russian boi.

Got German copies of:
>Siddhartha
>Berlin, Alexanderplatz
>Kitchen
Shame I didn’t have more time in Germany

Got a leatherbound copy of Tolstoy’s Resurrection.
I also snagged the last copy of Storm of Steel from the bookstore at half price. (I’m intersted how it will compare to All quiet on the Western Front)

I do. They can be quite pleasant if that is your cup of tea.
Now obsessing over anime is another thing entirely.

>Illuminations by Walter Benjamin
>Notes from Underground
>Pale Fire
>Silently and Very Fast by Catherynne M. Valente
>the Chuck Tingle books from the latest Humble Bundle

More useful like what? Bills? Down payments? Come on man, I like to have fun.

Maybe he means more books. Or an investment

You could have saved it into a fund to buy a proper copy of Das Kapital later.
Or you know, you could have just started with the Manifesto.
Or even buy a different, abridged version of Das Kapital.
A bunch of better things basically.

I have a fuck load of books
I'm not actually going to read Das Kapital.

So you got it for the meme cred or what?

No, I got it because it looked entertaining and mildly educational. A friend recommended it to me. I fucking hate trying to read actual communist theory books. I have a lot of communist friends who have been explaining this stuff to me for a while.

What kind of a Russian are you?

>Crime and Punishment
>The House on The Borderland
>Communist Manifesto

Basically bought the cheapest books on my amazon wishlist. Which one should I start with my guys?

Imagine being this much of a fucking faggot, I really hope you fucking kill yourself OP.

Cyka desu. Please tell your mates not to fuck up the world cup for the travelling supporters

Damn this looks really nice. Especially jelly of that Storm of Steel.

I wish that American companies made books without dust covers like this.

House on the Borderland!

animu transcends round-eye politics

...

I couldn't help myself i already read the Communist Manifesto but i need it in this hardcover beauty, with it i bought a copy of The Ego and His Own

>Bohemian Socialist the post.

>>Bohemian
>is czech
in more ways than one

I plan on collecting most of the science fiction Folio has released now and in the future.

I was surprised to see how many pocket editions like this are there in Germany.
They really are pretty, and sort of durable since they are hardcovers, even if the binding isn't that great.

It's the first translation to be published. The publisher makes all sorts of wacky stuff, be it hard or softcover. This is one of their better prints. For example, they also published Gao Xingjian's Soul Mountain, and that one has visible fucking jpeg artefacts on the cover.
The Tolstoy book was made in the 60s, it's the sixth book in the series. Only 1100 leather bound copies were made, the rest are cloth bound, but the contents are the same.
Weird thing is that American prints often cost the same, but are softcovers.
You have some nice used books though, shame I don't have access to the US used market
