Here are some of the volumes i'm contemplating (13 days)

1. The Elementary Particles - Michel Houellebecq - this guy seems interesting, he likes i suppose to be as unsavory as possible saying offensive things, a misanthrope i saw a description. Well, if it's done right, i can like that sort of thing, and this will be how i find out.

2. Nietzsche and the Vicious Circle - Pierre Klossowski - this guy first came to my awareness as being cited in the opening credits of Pasolini's final film, Pierre wrote a book on deSade, but Nietzsche imo is much more interesting owing to my issues with religion, once i tested this volume out downloaded, but the actual book will be excellent, and in a Bill & Ted way totally bogus dude!

3. Richard Hofstadter: Anti-Intellectualism in American Life, The Paranoid Style in American Politics, Uncollected Essays 1956-1965 - this is to counter-act the persistent living room presence of the so called news, i feel this volume would be way more intelligent, and potentially sparking interest in such topics as the so called news is doing.

4. Journey to the End of Night - Louis-Ferdinand Celine - the famous angry frenchman novel, it bugs me i've never read it.

5. The Journal of Albion Moonlight - Kenneth Patchen - ever since reading Henry Miller, this book and author has been on my radar, i just hope i'm not too old for it. It may have been better to devour at an impressionable age, and to have then made more interesting decisions in life.

everything else i'm considering i've mentioned before. LOVE reading, this afternoon finished VALIS, and been slowly and meditatively going through Human, All Too Human, shaping up to be another awesome day, and as a sidenote, everything is ok with my family, i sincerely apologized, however i am determined not to just let the incident slide by, it's deeper connotations must be addressed with a more focused and deadly awareness.

Reading is so addicting. I read day and night as a child. Took the lamp under the blanket so I wouldn't get in trouble! Now I just read the Bible and I share what I know from reading, and my own experiences. You can maybe write your own volumes one day 馃檪
