Book: Life and Fate by Vasily Grossman Read from 6/16/24 - 7/22/24 This video was originally 60 min long, I had to cut down every clip of me saying “this is good as fuck,” because there were a lot of them hahaha. There was a whole chunk of me going into Vasily Grossman as a person, writer, veteran, etc., but it was a bit too much for this video. Members, if you want it I will upload 🤔

    Really dug the video. Had a hard time getting through Lunar Park for some reason though. It felt different than all his other books-more sophisticated. And it’s him stepping away from youth culture which is something he does so well. The Informers has always been a personal favorite of mine because it’s Ellis’ version of a soap opera, or at least that’s how it feels to me. And you have this large cast of characters who are indistinguishable from one another, much like a soap opera, and everything’s melodramatic. My personal rankings would be: 1. The Shards, 2. The Informers, 3. Less Than Zero, 4. The Rules Of Attraction, 5. American Psycho, 6. Glamorama, 7. Imperial Bedrooms, 8. Lunar Park , 9. White

    And then Bakunin needed a disguise to get by the authorities - and dressed up as a priest LOL 😆😸 It's in his biography. Anarchism posited independent self-supporting communities connected by loose networks of decreased government power. It sounds great compared to communism. Unfortunately it has never been properly practiced long enough to see if it would work. What HAS worked is the 70,000 member voluntary workers' cooperative Mondragon community in Spain, founded by a Catholic priest (😺😀) some 70 years ago and a proven success.

    We have the same name, similar cultural background, and similar book taste :) I read Stoner a while back and agree - it was truly beautiful in the simplicity of the story it told and I feel like the misery in the between heightened that. While I didn't love it I might have to re-read it soon.

    oh she is back!!! but oh nooo!!! not the dislike for Stoner!!! 😭😭😭 i think the slow moments in the middle speak to the mundanity of life, the waiting , the anticipating for something greater, something richer, when in the end, there's this simplicity of wanting simple. are there books that focus on the explosive expresiveness of mundanity that you have enjoyed? also love when a book like Mating is able to pinpoint and flesh out all the ways we are not able to express in our own livelihoods! can't wait to get to it!

    • @bookpogo

      I think I would’ve loved stoner pre-move but now that life is so great and I’ve escaped small town misery I was like oh hell no 😭 amazing question too… I seriously think every murakami book I’ve read, despite not loving any of them (save 1Q84), has had my absolute favorite expressions of the mundane. Give me cigarettes, work, misery, bowl of noodles, eating at the table with a record on, staring into space, etc. I love it every time. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on Mating too!!! Sending u a big hug 🫂

    I like the other two books by Williams. Bolaño is boring as hell for me, why is he so popular?!?! I think men have simpler desires and that's why we're easier to write, even for a female author. As long as your believes don't end up in some fundamentalist extreme it's fine. The most brilliant man I've ever known was a devout catholic and a biologist studying bees, so I guess he was a complete person. Anyway, good luck with finding Isaac.
