My little arsenal of the resistance

Lord of the manor is


This is my Number 1 audiobook, it's exquisite.

Gregory T. Luzitano gives perhaps the best voice for Nietzsche i've so far heard, he does The Will to Power, Beyond Good and Evil, This Spoke Zarathustra, and Genealogy of Morals, in that order, and from public domain translations.

Michael Lunts gives all but one Ukemi label recordings for the free Spirit series, which for Human All Too Human leaves out large chunks of the text. Public domain translations. I will need at some point getting some newer translation recordings, from Penguin and other high profile publishers.

Christopher Oxford is a pleasure to hear for the other Ukemi Audio for The Antichrist and Ecce Homo. If I could write to Ukemi i'd ask them to have Mr. Oxford to re-do what Michael Lunts did with the WHOLE text.

6 Richard Howard translations of Cioran read charmingly by Rick Adamson, but it's not how i'd like to hear Cioran, Rick makes it sound as if he's just on the edge of crying, and that to me makes it feel like Cioran was on the verge of tears, I reject that most assuredly, there is no such thing for me. And by hearing at length what one should only read in small portions of a time gives the experience of hearing an all too repetitive quality which causes the material to sound predictable and irritable.


Ayrton Parham gives a fine reading of Max Stirner's The Ego and Its Own, the s sounds are a bit much though.


Adam Sims gives us a flawless performance of The Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa, as long as I don't see it as whining, it's as essential a text for me as Nietzsche, Notes from Underground, and Camus, Shestov and so on.

Peter Wickham does Oswald Spengler's The Decline of the West, Peter does a few other great works, but his voice isn't my favorite, he sounds like a stuffy ole professor. That can be a good thing, but for Spengler, it's not right, not right I tell you!!

There is some stoic stuff in there too, that's the best actually, and along with some Taoism, but those kinds of things aren't to be defined as being of the Resistence, but are also offering positive replacement models of thought as what will direct and guide the paths taken.

Those are the direct resistance sources in audible, other Ukemi recordings are of immense aid too
