You should write a BM song about it. You have to sing House in blue.

The Illuminatus! Trilogy - Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson

Very good choice, RAW is awesome.


Been reading lots of H.P. Lovecraft as stated earlier and i fucking love him. His stories are great, my favorite's so far are "dream-quest for unknown kadath" and "the silver key" so fucking good.

yeah the randolph carter series is great

my favorite is still The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward, though.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Dunwich Horror, Rats in the Walls, Call of Cthulhu, Dreams in the Witch-House and Shadow Over Innsmouth are my favs.

 

[The Emptier]

I just finished Turgenev - Fathers and Sons for one of my classes. It was really good and I could tell it was superbly written even though it was a translation. I'd recommend it for anyone interested in Russian history.

I've read that one too. Sad ending... then again it is Russian.
I put down Thus Spake Zarathustra for now... honestly I'm not getting anything out of it. I haven't put a book down in years but this is so tedious.
So... I've picked up a Solomon's biography of Beethoven... enjoyable thus far.

Sad ending but I think it was the only way it could've ended

Been on a Jack London kick lately. Just ordered myself "The Call of the Wild, White Fang, and To Build a Fire" -- I have all 3 already, just as separate pieces of literature, so it'll be nice to have all 3 in one book. And then I also ordered "Smoke Bellew" by Jack London...should hopefully be receiving these by Saturday or Monday.

It's literary theory and criticism stuff, I'm assuming...
