Is that her boo? His bad facial hair and posture gives me hope
>>9743234
Looks theory EVISCERATED
ontilogicool is a babe
Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Pretty difficult read for me honestly. I felt like I was just scraping the surface.
>>9743253
Kraznahorkai uses periods, just very sparingly. I really enjoy long sentences. You've gotta be focused when you're reading him but it isn't hard to follow.
>>9743262
Fictions, the stories are not all 9 or 10s but there definitely are some 10+ in there

The Quincunx, Charles palister
Wow, I guess it would be The Denial of Death, which I read 3 years ago. Dorian Gray and C&P come close for me. Though purely on prose, Gray is a perfect 10.

Industrial Society and its Future by Ted Kaczynski.

Im near through the second part and I am thinking about putting it down.
The philosophy is a lot more boring than I imagined and he does seem very redundant.

In half a century or so this will be remembered as one of the most important publications in deconstructing leftist ideology in history. He takes leftism to its logical endpoint and effectively slaps the reset button on the entire cultural movement. It's a bit too early for people to acknowledge his brilliance right now though, considering he's still in prison.
I would have to say Steppenwolf maybe eventhough it has been a while ago.
Too many other books while being superior in many aspects compared to HH were lacking in others and would not reach a 9/10 rating.

the second and third parts are the best. first part (sans prologue) is the most boring, fourth is the least comprehensible.

She looks like this girl from my creative writing club, if that girl were 150 lbs lighter
>>9743378
she is clearly anorectic
It's funny, I leave and you're still here. We call this chumming the waters. It's quite entertaining.

Even the picture is thin
Mythology by Edith Hamilton (9) was in my mind a masterpiece because of its structure and concise writing.
A Frolic of His Own (10) was to me a work of supreme genius, not only because of Gaddis's obviously overwhelming command of language but also the depth of the indictment on the legal "profession," one of the "pillars" of western civilization. This is a superficial interpretation but he took these pillars (Art, Economy, Law, Religion/Architecture) and said, IMO, all that could be said of them at the time, and in a genius way. I am biased because I am a lawyer, but I thought he did it best in Frolic of His Own.
>>9743472
that's the point
>>9743519
I thought mythology was boring and pointless. Boring in the impersonal way the myths were related and pointless in that reading the actual myths would be more fun and reading the Wikipedia article would be quicker with not much less info than the book.

It's a choice between reading the collected works of Homer, Auschelyes, Sophocles, Pindar, Ovid, etc., etc., or reading condensed versions of all of those authors by someone who did the reading and scrutiny for you.
I chose the latter, probably because of limited time.

There are no asians that look like her. She's obviously white, not all whites are blonde haired/pink skinned neanderthals.
>>9743743
She looks 1/2 or 3/4 white.
>>9743749
>>9743754
She looks very much Latina in this post >>9743321 but in >>9743649 she looks more Eurasian/Eastern European. Probably one of her parent is a slav who married a mestizo.
>>9743784
It's called hongcover for a reason. Shes East Asian/Anglo
>>9743754
She's from. Halifax nova Scotia. She lives there with her bf
>>9743795
She kinda look like Anna Akana with less mongoloid features. You right, probably has jap/chink ancestry a few generations down.

Not really, kinda pear-shaped. Her face looks thin enough that when she's sitting down you forget, then she stands up and it's a shock to see what was hiding under the table

six four, hideo yokoyama. long book that takes place over 7 days. very well structured, with breaks explaining the detective work of the MC. the twist is unexpected. the only hickup i saw was that we dont get closure of one of the questions brought up in the earlier part of the book. otherwise, this thing was kafkaesque (used correctly). he is kept out of the loop and he himself tries to withhold information. very interesting read on what we want people to know and what we shouldnt know, or what we should withhold from the public.
>>9744661
also forgot to mention that the MC and his old friend have this weird cliche relationship found in manga and shit and it definitely felt out of place. but thats all small potatoes
