The last physical books that are on the way

I feel like sharing this more for myself, in that i can keep track of what's coming more clearly. It is true that i've used this challenge as a means and cause to go on a little spending spree, but i'm looking at it as at least a whole year without getting anymore, it's like i'm going into a bomb shelter during WWIII and these books are my canned goods. 100 books seems too small also, more like 200. Some minor infringements may occur, for example the last Anais Nin Diary volume, due out in October. Yeah, this is a fun way to do something needed, i have since yesterday gone over and above the buying, and now a minimum of a year is called for for not getting anything new, it's to prove to myself that reading is better than getting. And when the debt is paid up, that does not mean i can then dispense with this challenge, a debt free state means rather that i can eat better food more often.

This is the one i got first a graphic novel version of

pre-ordered, this will have an overlap of his first poetry collection but a different translator, TB's poetry will be indispensable in appreciating TB as a whole, unlike the Plays which for me i can't really appreciate reading Plays for the most part

This was quite a splurge for his first novel which wasn't published till the year he died

pre-ordered, 5 previously untranslated stories, and i love the cover art here

arriving tomorrow, a short story collection

not yet shipped, another short story collection

Yes, this too

and these 2 which i'm most looking forward to, i love the look of these Vintage Internationals, all the rest of them minus 1 are on the kindle, which at a later date after my challenge i should grab them.
