I started reading Star Maker by Olaf Stapledon, about 40 pages in and it's not really grabbing me.

Just finished Boy Heaven by Laura Kasischke, and loved it so much I'll read more of her stuff, starting with the not-so-much-talked-about to keep the best for the end, and I'll track her poetry too.

Philip K. Dick novels. So far I've read Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said and The Penultimate Truth. At the moment I'm reading The 3 Stigmata Of Palmer Eldritch. All brilliant reads.

Great, exhaustive study into Michel de Nostredame, and the deluded cult of personality that evolved around his quatrains. He never predicted jack fucking shit.

The Skating Rink by Roberto Bolaño. Enjoying it.

Recently finished -

Donald Antrim - Hundred Brothers, Elect Mr Robinson for a Better World
Ben Marcus - The Flame Alphabet
Tao Lin - Taipei

All highly recommended. Got some James Kelman and Alasdair Gray lined up next.

Rob Instigator · 09.12.2013, 09:10 AM

Awesome.

Putin's oped - no wonder the neocons are crying like infants without their rattles, he sounds like a world leader and recites facts they would like to hide.

Dude, usually its foreverasskiss that posts drunkenly stupid statements, Putin? sounding like a world leader? Recites facts?

Rob Instigator · 09.19.2013, 11:28 AM

Finished up the Dictionary of Common Fallacies and now moving on to this

Houdini's book about how he spent 25+ years investigating the claims of mediums and seances and Spiritualism. he found nothing but self-deluded crackpots, and wilfully malicious con-artists. Nothing changes. shit don;t change.

any and all churches are no different from the "gypsy" fortune teller setting up shop in her home

The police should send the Bunco squad after all the churches just like they do the psychic rip-off artistes
