Something about having my own library of books to browse through is very appealing to me. Hence, I buy books compulsively and own literally hundreds that I haven't read. Gravity's Rainbow and Narcissus and Goldmund are two such books; let me know if they are worth prioritizing.
I am impatient of all misery in others that is not mad. Thou should'st go mad, blacksmith; say, why dost thou not go mad? How can'st thou endure without being mad? Do the heavens yet hate thee, that thou can'st not go mad?

I bet I'll get to this point some time. I always go into book stores telling myself I won't buy anything. Then, once I find something I want, I just tell myself that I eventually would have bought it anyway so I might as well just buy it now. I have found no counter argument.Quoting Melville (view post)
Wishful thinking, perhaps; but that is just another possible definition of the featherless biped.
just purchase this for my friend's birthday.
i read some of it. even though i'm familiar with most, it's still hilarious.
the sale at my local library is such a let down. most of them are hardcover of authers i have never heard of or pop writers which i have a lot of respect for, but i don't feel like reading their work. the only thing noteworthy that i get from it is to the lighthouse, and christie's curtain.

I almost bought The Demolished Man as well, but the cover was so horrendous I feared it would drive me insane.
