Thanks for the quick response

Read every book you can get your hands on, even if they're bad, and whether or not they are form an opinion on them that has been informed by your acquaintance with the book in question.

Could you please clarify this point?

Don't talk shit about something you haven't read, and don't suck Rand's dick if you've never bothered to pick up Atlas Shrugged

Well Goedel claims it is impossible to know all mathematical law, but that's no reason to ignore it

You aren't going to accumulate a complete understanding of anything but you can know enough to make a difference (if you're crafty enough).

This is why feels > reals in case you didn't know.

>one can never have a complete understanding of geopolitics
Resources and geography aren't very complex unless you are a brainlette

>>9486804
>Asks to talk about the book. Starts with politics.

I like the religious parade part. Maybe ten years since I read this book. So maybe the guy with the crazy hat is made up.

Remind me about it?

>>9486815
>Starts with politics.
No, I'm talking about actual economic research. Bell Journal, Journal of Finance, Journal of Accounting & econ, etc. You can take the politics and shove it up your ass, homie.

It's Vonnegut's best novel after Cat's Cradle.

>>9486798
>Is there a good list of classics that should be read in order?
Yes.

>>9486798

Just work through Blooms list in a haphazard sort of way. Go chronological, use wiki, find what sounds interesting to you and read it. Move on from an era when you feel like it.

Thanks

Thanks even more

Lad, just finished this two days ago too. Reading the next one in the tetralogy now, Runaway Horses.

Maybe you can help find a quote. It was my favorite in the book but I can't remember what it was exactly. Should have marked it. It was somewhere towards the end, describing how those afflicted with leprosy or illness exhibit the same kind of symptoms as those in love.

My favorite part of the book, besides Kiyoaki's pilgrimage up the hill at the end, was the reveal about Tadeshina and Count Ayakura's agreement regarding Satoko. Had no idea that was coming, really caught me off guard. Great book, really excited to read the next three.

The last thing he says to Honda was haunting too how he grabbed his hand tightly.

>Just now I had a dream. I'll see you again. I know it. Beneath the falls"

I think I know the part you mean, where he is trying to talk to the "monster" who people say has leprosy? I like how he lays on the grass in a certain way and then that kid puts down his book and does the same so they are mirroring each other except one is ugly and the other is handsome.

I really want to start the Sea of Fertility, but the only Mishima I've read is The Sailor... and The Sound of Waves. Should I read more by him before the tetralogy, or is it enough?

This is too patrician for /lit/ to discuss

i can't even make this shit up but a priviledged indian woman can

fucking book tweaks me out and causes my OCD to go haywire because she thought it was avant-garde to split her motherfucking sentences halfway through in a shallow attempt to make haikus that are vague and anemic as fuck

1. I'm deep in The Zone, STALKER.

2. /lit/ why I can't quit you

3. No, but plenty of great artists drank brandy.

>>9485984
>1) Why aren't you writing right now?

Because it's not the right time, I have to feel the right moment.

>2)Why haven't you finished your novel?

it's very complex and deep, so it takes a lot of time to do it right

>3) Do you think any great artists drank soda pop?

No, they all drank matcha tea
