★ books, among other things

I really am more used to night than day, but staying up will not help me with my studies. That, and more people are awake in the morning than at night ( Read more... )

nightlife, bored, books, stories

Notes From Underground has always been a favorite of mine.

blackhillcat May 7 2009, 08:06:37 UTC

Who is the author? I shall look for this. May I ask why this is your favorite?

pastafucking May 11 2009, 13:57:54 UTC

Fyodor Dostoevsky. It's considered the very first existential novel.

blackhillcat May 12 2009, 02:53:25 UTC

Very well, I shall look for this book as well. Thank you for your suggestion, Mr...?

I'm fond of the Divine Comedy, but it's best in its original language.

Or were you asking for something of a different genre?

blackhillcat May 7 2009, 08:07:59 UTC

No, any genre is fine. I have read Inferno and did a paper on it for school. I shall read the rest. I am not sure I will be able to understand it in the original language, however.

Aceman! Classic comic series. Classic!

blackhillcat May 7 2009, 08:08:55 UTC

Not exactly what I had in mind, but I shall go and find a copy of Aceman as well. Thank you.

waitingfora May 7 2009, 08:23:30 UTC

Totally welcome. Someone should never go without reading that comic once. Changed my life.

blackhillcat May 7 2009, 08:25:43 UTC

Well, if it changed your life, then it should really be worth the while.

I've always enjoyed Lovecraft.

blackhillcat May 8 2009, 02:24:49 UTC

Lovecraft is a book, or a person?

modeofbehavior May 8 2009, 02:25:33 UTC

An author.

blackhillcat May 8 2009, 02:26:32 UTC

Oh. He must have published a lot of books, then. What sort of books did he write?

I'm a busy man, you realize, I can't answer to every shout out in the Network. But I suppose exceptions should be made from time to time.

My book goes well, though I'm afraid you'll have to wait to see what it is about. I'm sure you'll enjoy it, though. After all, I wrote it.

You might want to read Voltaire, too. It's... entertaining.

[Private, Unhackable] blackhillcat May 12 2009, 02:55:29 UTC

Thank you for taking your time in answering this. It really means a lot.

I will have to acquire the book as soon as it comes out, then. I am really looking forward to it.

Voltaire. I shall keep this in mind when I go to the library again. Thank you.
