Sorry, I mis-read that - my point still stands, but Sartre is shite, Heidegger entirely co-extensive with Hegel and Kierkegaard doesn't exist without Hegel. Nietzsche maybe, but it seems pointless going for the small fish if you've already accepted Descartes and Kant.

I don't mean Hegel is insignificant, I've just read enough Heidegger and Kierkegaard to have extracted the salient points (i.e. Heideggering Heidegger).

Yeah... it's that thing of taking your own approach. That fat ugly German dialectical cunt needs to be read, to my mind, if only so you can say with confidence that he's a cunt. Same with Adorno, uttery cuntestry.

I've started Songs of Distant Earth by Arthur C. Clarke. I think I'm going to completely exhaust my local library's entire Clarke collection before I start reading any other author.

andre breton-nadja

I've got a copy of this and have been meaning to read it for ages,any good?.

True, it wouldn't be much of a love of wisdom if I only exposed myself to what I find agreeable.

I just got Birthday Letters by Ted Hughes, and There's a Wocket in My Pocket by Dr. Seuss. Which should I read first?

the beggining is a bit hard to follow, but its a fun read, and after a bit it becomes a bit more coherent ( i think)
i say go for it

I'm going to read The Assistant by Robert Walser next,then Nadja!.

'Two Diaries of the Long Parliament', edited and all by someone called Maija Jansson.

I want to read 2666. Has anyone here read it yet?

I am part way through Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley. So far, excellent.

Read Lee's forward to THE EMPTY PAGE anthology, and started thumbing thru COBAIN: UNSEEN.

plato-symposium

I'm going through a textbook for a class my wife took a few years ago that is full of examples of post-modern fiction. There's some crazy shit in there.

I have the Anthology of Postmodern American Fiction from a class, and "crazy shit" is an accurate description.

Another Roadside Attraction by Tom Robbins.
