Physical books being read
This afternoon gathered some of my physical treasures in 3 piles by my recliner, and these are them, which will be added to the 1st of the 3 pinned posts, but i'm simply making a new post about them to bring fresh awareness, it is indeed a pleasure to hold a real book, and turn the pages!!
Jorge Luis Borges -- Collected Fictions
William T. Vollmann -- Fathers and Crows
William H. Gass -- Omensetter's Luck and The Tunnel
The Koran translated by Marmaduke Pickthall
The Gift: Poems by Hafiz
Jean Paul Sartre -- Nausea
Aristotle -- The Nicomachean Ethics
Kurt Vonnegut -- Cat's Cradle (in the 2nd LOA volume of 4 for his novels)
Daniel Paul Schreber -- Memoirs of My Nervous Illness -- what a crazy thing this is!!
Knut Hamsun -- Mysteries
The Complete Tales of H.P. Lovecraft -- a beautiful big green hardcover, and the font is so lovely to read!!
The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe -- a handsome purple hardcover, print is a little smaller than HP's but same publisher.
William Gaddis -- JR -- these are my initials
E.M. Cioran's The Fall Into Time
Mary Daly -- Pure Lust -- I have to hide this because it's garish looking and has the dread F word on the cover (Feminism that is) and it's a bright yellow with flourishing old style lettering. It's a gas though, pure wordsmith she was!
