Got me into reading as a kid. I remember being hard into DUDE WEED as a 16 year old and googled trippy books. I purchased 2. One was naked lunch the other was on a winter's night a traveler. I started with naked lunch and got halfway and gave it to a friend because it was so terrible. He did the same except gave my copy to the trash. But on a winter night a traveler sparked some shit with me. Never looked back.

Same here minus the weed and Naked Lunch.

I have read that book recently and found it lots of fun. I imgained the "other reader" to look like my crush. That made it a little extra fun. Also the scene where people randomly start talking about their reading methods was fun too.

He is a god of prose. I don't know if the translations are good, however
