How could we get "Lets Meet in a Dream" by Murakami and Itoi professionally translated? Murakami's early works Wind/Pinball were just re-translated a few years ago by Knopf so maybe there is a chance.

>(((They))) expel the lot, and leave the soul of their victims swept clean, ready for the great initiation. Which follows when (((they))) lead in a splendid garlanded procession of insolence, license, extravagance, and shamelessness. (((They))) praise them all. And call insolence good breeding. License, liberty. Extravagance, generosity. And shamelessness, courage.

All that time you spend on typing extra characters adds up and over time you'll realize as much time as you wasted putting in extra parentheses would have been wasted by your character anyway and you carved your own destiny as a pieceworker who never completes shit except closing brackets.

There's literally no reason to be writing fantasy in 2017

Every conceivably good or mediocre idea has been done at least 12 times by now

I don't usually read much fantasy or sci-fi (read Forever War in high school and BotNS recently), but a guy I know is trying to lend me the Kingkiller Chronicle. He says its the best thing he's read but wouldn't tell me too much about what its about. Any of you guys know if its worth a read?

I'm interested in reading Ibn Battutah's Travels, however I can't find much information about available translations and whether or not it is abridged or completely compiled in English.

What is the best way to read it?

just fucking read it, the most interesting take away for me is that islam was pretty progressive compared to some of the retarded shit people believed back in the day, and also that every rich guy in the world had a bunch of acrobats doing the same tricks

try looking at the words dumbass

shut up

>>9843992
the version in your pick is the best translation but you should read the Adventures Ibn Battuta of Ross E. Dunn for some historical context about the world he traveled in.

So, /lit/, im a huge fan of mob films and games, but i've never read any book of this type.
Could u guys reccomend any books set in the 60's or 40's? If its mob related, that would be awesome.
