Speaking of demented Frenchmen, if you can get your hands on a copy of The Dead Man by George Bataille, it's kind of rare but worth it.
Speaking of George Bataille, where better than to put this, The Solar Anus by Bataille:

Speaking of weird screeds, a certain horror writer called Ligotti turned me on to Zapffe's The Last Messiah:

Last post by 666 - Dec 05, 2025, 06:41 PMOne of my favorite books is The Dwarf, by Par Lagerkvist. He's always brilliant, but for my money this story is easily his best, in fact the only one I ever have read more than once or ever plan to.

It's been a while since I've read it, but thinking on other shorter novels that don't mince words studying archetypes, Woman in the Dunes by Kobo Abe struck a chord. I've wanted to get back around to this one for a while:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9998.The_Woman_in_the_Dunes
And lastly, in the same vein, They Shoot Horses Don't They?, another terrific book.

Last post by 666 - Dec 05, 2025, 06:09 PMI like the newer Parkes translation of Zarathustra, the only copy I own:
https://global.oup.com/academic/product/thus-spoke-zarathustra-9780199537099?cc=us&lang=en&;
And this was enjoyable albeit probably quite libertine, but that's what he was going for I think and anyway I don't speak German. A good book for the less invested reader of Nietzsche regardless:

Last post by prime - Dec 04, 2025, 12:50 PMQuoteEgo-syntonicism is a mental state wherein a person's behaviors, thoughts, and attitudes are consistent solely with their sense of self or ego. They experience and act out only in ways they perceive are best for them. What they want for themselves. What brings them pleasure. And they make their self serving decisions regardless of the effect on others. Even if help is available they will deny the help if it conflicts with their goal of self satisfaction. In highfalutin terms it is extreme solipsism. In simple English it is extreme selfishness.
