Finished East of Eden by John Steinbeck and think it's one of the best books I've ever read. So well written.

i really hate self help books atm

anyone read Charles Bukowski latley

I wish the library would re-open again...

finally found a physical copy of this s*** and it was cheaper than retail

been looking for this book for a year now and it’s been sold out everywhere and was going for 60-80$ on eBay at one point but amazon recently did a restock on these o guess

800 pages on pimp c and the text is tiny as hell on some bible s***. just flipped through it and it’s got a couple pages of photos in between every few chapters as well.

just finished "Hollywood " by Bukowski and man that s*** was boring at the start but ended very well in my opinion and i tend to like s*** like that once i can get over the boringness if i was a philosopher i'd relate it to life and habits

Just starting the kyballion.

Full of good insight. But feels like the ‘initiate’ is trying super hard to make it seem like a secret club u need to join

Amazon cant get my dad books fast enough he’s already finished his quarantine stack

Goat avi

Reading often gets my emotions going more than movies do.

Something about having to visuslize a universe yourself makes u more involved.

just got my first ereader Kobo Libra h20, f*** amazon

saw some high praise for this book in this sxn so I decided to check it out. finished it yesterday and it was some mid. the best part of the book is probably the motorcycle ride itself and the narrative between the main character and his son. most of the philosophy drones on and the narrator during those parts sounds pretty pretentious. definitely not exactly a light read,

Just finished Narcissus and Goldmund. Didn't expect it to hit so hard

@Synopsis have you read anything from Joseph Stieglitz

people, power, profits and the price of inequality

Worth trying?

yeah

his politics are not my politics, but he obviously understands economics and what the issues are. price of inequality is much better btw

I picked up Globalization and It's Discontents and have liked what I've heard from him and exposure he had to United Nations/World Bank. He seems a lot more credible and genuine than Kruger.

Reading Humankind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman, Dignity: Seeking Respect in Back Row America by Chris Arnade and the Far Right Today and What is Populism - Cas Mudde.

My older self would’ve never considered Bregman and Arnade’s work but I’m glad I have matured and can see the worth in reading such books. Reading a little of each when I have time!

Currently reading Pedagogy of The Oppressed, i'm not a big non-fiction reader and while I get the ideas the author is trying to put out I kinda can't wait to finish it/get it over with feels like I'm not giving the author the respect because the topics are actually pretty heavy

now reading

Éliane Radigue: Intermediary Spaces

currently reading lolita

damn

love that book
