Dude, I wonder, have you've ever listened to Circa Survive? They have a new album being released soon and I'm contemplating pre-ordering their deluxe package man, its like 70 USD for the album, vinyl, a shirt, bag and a lithograph. Man, I think it's great that they have these packages and it's an awesome way to support the band.
Yeah, I'm gonna leave those for when I'm ready.
Ulysses and Finnegan's Wake aren't casual reading material. I wouldn't even read those until you're done with the rest. F.W. isn't even a book people read for enjoyment, it's experimental. That's enough material to last you a year. You shouldn't cram, it makes you less able to appreciate a book.
I would say that's a shitload of reading material. That will last you ages, especially Ulysses. That's not a book you just casually read, and Finnegan's Wake isn't really one to read for enjoyment as opposed to appreciative research.
I wikied (almost) every book and added a crapload more to my list, haha. Looks like I'm gonna have lotsa stuff to read for the next few months. :] Nassim Nicholas Taleb - The Black Swan Bret Eastion Ellis - Glamorama Virginia Woolf - The Voyage Out Nino Ricci - Lives of the Saints Alan Hollinghurst - The Spell Rebecca Wells - Little Altars Everywhere Paul Auster - Leviathan Paul Auster - Brooklyn Follies Philip Roth - American Pastoral Gao Xingjian - Soul Mountain Jose Saramago - Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis Yann Martel - Life of Pi Ali Smith - The Accidental Peter Carey - Theft Joseph O'Conner - Star of the Sea Nelson Alcren - A Walk on the Wild Side Ha Jin - Waiting Don DeLillo - Cosmopolis
Dude, some guy is selling off lotsa books real cheap off craigslist, was wondering if you have some titles to recommend to me. I've already shortlisted: John Irving - The Cider House Rules Haruki Murakami - The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle William Gibson - Spook Country James Joyce - Finnegans Wake James Joyce - Ulysses Sun Tzu - War & Management Douglas Coupland - Girlfriend in Coma
Oh yes, yes sir.
Should I give The Velvet Underground's Squeeze a listen?
Are...are you serious?
Sorry man, hate to disappoint you... can't do it.
