Brothers Karamazov
2666
Goodbye to All That
The blade runner art book ;)

What the fuck should i read?

>The Narrow Road to the Deep North - Richard Flanagan - 2 stars
I read that one last year and found it pretty crap as well, I never get all the critical accolades for Flanagan. I guess it's a 'well he's Australian and he writes about more than XXXX Gold so we should applaud him', like a medal at the retard olympics or something

The Gambler - Dostoevsky
Lord of the World - Robert Hugh Benson.

Infinet Jest
The Collor Purple
Odyseus
Boven Is Het Stil (the twins)

Yes, it's a solid war novel.

I'm trying to read one book from every African country this year; so far I've read 10.

Stofuhiti (Icelandic book) (It sucked)
Stoner
The Myth of Sisyphus and other essays
A very short introduction to Metaphysics
The Castle
The City of Ladies
Inherent Vice
Smá Eyríki (Some poems my teacher wrote)
Seven Brief Lessons on Physics

How would you guys rate The Death of Ivan Illych ? I found it boring as fuck whereas Master and Servant (which was in the same book) was less naive and at least filled with a little bit of emotion.

>so far I've read 10
>there's more than 50 countries in Africa
How do you like the taste of failure?

Tropic of Capricorn
Heart of Darkness

Master and Margarita (3rd time through)
Buddha's Little Finger

The Illiad
The Stranger

Sartor Resartus, which I’m pretty sure is the first post-modern novel ever written, way before that was even a thought in anyone’s head.

All The Pretty Horses, because I’m a McCarthy fanboy

The Nag Hammadi Library, I don’t remember the specific collection.

Mere Christianity
Silence

Not nearly enough. Need to keep pushing.

These ones. Also read Iliad but it was in a binding with Odyssey which I haven't read yet so it's still in "currently reading" limbo.

Moby Dick

Why am I so slow? I finished like 15 books in 4 months at the end of last year.

Were they all 600 pages? Hell they might've been it's certainly possible, you just gotta stop subvocalizing :^)

Been reading some Chomsky lately and want to take a deep dive into anarcho-syndicalism. Anywhere in particular I ought to start, you think?

Wait, are you brazilian as well or those two works get paired often? But I agree, Master and Servant was much more heartfelt and moving.

Catcher in the Rye
Doctor Faustus
Notes from the Underground
The Brothers Karamazov
The Trial
Dubliners
The Metamorphosis
Anna Karenina

I think I’m ok

not that kind of anarcho-syndicalism user, he’s a fascist

can't imagine being so grim as to keep track of the poetry collections as part of the books you have read that year, i bet you track plays too

Most of these are poems or short stories. Shut the fuck up

the final dark tower book
god and the philosophers
south of the border west of the sun
and currently working on the republic.

The Stars My Destination


I need to make time to read.

The Prince, and More's Utopia this week. Been a good week.

Do you niggers keep tabs on what books you have read? I have been keeping a spreadsheet with the title and author of every book or novella or short story I have read since December 2010.

currently reading Stoner

Yep. It's comfy

Reading 1984 now.

>reading vast amounts of writing from graphic novels to poetry to drama to literary fiction to non-fiction

What've you read this year, user?
I track individual books. Do you only consider fiction to be collectable within a book? Does non-fiction fit within a book? Are 600 page poetry collections not a book? Are a playwright's body of work not a book?
More short stories and poems and plays and novels and non-fiction than you've read, my dear
