Just read it, look into some competent translations, buy the first volume, don't go all in until you're comfortable with doing so, and have at it.

Really more about bunnies. Do you think Steinbeck knew that?

>>7639071
You can find merit in pop culture, but people who do nothing but talk and think about it are morons.

>>7639089
You're honestly such a fucking dildo if you can't see the reasoning for understanding pop culture

That good, eh?

the image (pic related) leads to https://steamcommunity.com/id/Penwin/ to https://bandcamp.com/louisherriot, so whoever wrote it is probably vaporwave loving trash.

>what are post-it notes

>>7638957 what book is that?

Looks like your book lacks of text, is that house of leaves or some other gimmicky meme book?

Read it. Books can be read and enjoyed on different levels.

It's not hard, it's very fun to read, but it is dense for fiction.
It's cool to try your hand at it and its ok to miss stuff because you are, at the very least, being introduced to it which is always a neccessary struggle.

You will always miss stuff with Borges, nigga is deep as fuck. The hardest story is I guess Tlön, Uqbar... but even if you don't get some of the references to philosophers and shit you will enjoy it.

I decided to start reading for pleasure this week. I finished Godforsaken Idaho by Shawn Vestal. really liked it

I tried to enjoy Loteria by Mario Alberto Zambrano, and And Now You Can Go by Vendela Vida, but they were both incredibly boring.

I also checked out American Psycho and Filth.

Just started Pocket Kings and it's pretty funny.

bought all these in the last month.

The bottom right is poetry from an Instagram chick. There's some good stuff there, but mostly pop poetry.

I recently purchased some books which I intend to read.
