halfway done with this

this is great but you have to listen to the albums as you read the chapters. if you dont let it contextualize the records as you hear them, too much gets lost. ive saved certain chapters until i can absorb them fully.

lethems new novel is pretty good. i read it in 8 hours when i couldnt sleep. i recommend it.

I really enjoyed Neverwhere so I'm now reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman

american gods is a fun read...!

just picked up "A Game of Thrones" by George R. R Martin.

yeah. some things are just going over my head when i read it. but i do find out who worked with who to make a track. i played pauls botique while i read the book and it made more sense.

i'll get around to checking out lethem. its "you don't love me yet" right?

also check out boris vian aka vernon sullivan. was a good friend of sartre, very similar to bukowski. "i will spit on your graves" is an awesome novel.

ya, thats the lethem book. before you get into it, read fortress of solitude. its the first book of his i read and im glad it was my intro to him cause i could relate to the content and it made me appreciate his prose alot more. you dont love me et seemed more like him trying to get out a book deal. it doesnt have the substance and subtext of his others, but hes still really good on the observational shit, and his character dialouge is brilliant. ill trade you fortress for that pauls boutique joint.

Last week I finished up an Osamu Dazai short story collection (Crackling Mountain) and just began going through a collection of Antonin Artaud stuff.

switching back and forth between; james l. swanson's manhunt: the 12-day chase for lincoln's killer and cormac mccarthy's no country for old men. i'm enjoying both of them very much.

Two books on my reading list:

The Namesake - Jhumpa Lahiri

Other Colors: Essays and a Story - Orhan Pamuk (his nobel prize acceptance speech is amazing)

Posted

starting on 'the world is flat' and 'lateral thinking'

a little non-fiction stint - really looking forward to ohan pamuik in the future, though, thanks analyst, for entroducing me to him
