I first watched your channel as a college student looking for discussions of against the day. Been watching ever since, and though I am not a member of the alliance yet, I would like to express my appreciation for your channel. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on all these great books!
Wanted to join the fun yesterday, but family matters interfered. But it looked fun. I'm a big Goodis fan myself and James Wilcox is a name I have not heard in a decade. Read Modern Baptists, which I give to Baptist relations who I know will enjoy it. Heinrich von Kleist was a Romantic era contemporary of Geothe, who wrote great stories. "The Earthquake in Chile" is a good place to start. The Magician's Wife is scheduled for October, along with The Statement. I could only get through Swan's Way, one section at a time, before running aground. Congrats on 5,000!
I had my alarm set, but the (near) 5000th BATHTACULAR was just too early for this Manila-based reader. And eventually listening to the stream made me regret missing out on the live one even more! Still, congratulations! 🥳 I was going to ask whether you like the works of John Crowley, specifically "Little, Big". And whether my preference for Avram Davidson over Harlan Ellison is defensible.
@@emersonviudez2284 sorry we missed each other, Emerson in Manila! Short answers, yes, I prefer Avram’s work as well. And I like Crowley’s work so much I had him as a guest at my CW class at UCONN, and engineered his part time gig for a semester when I was on leave. S
Read Cornell Woolrich for the first time this year and was absolutely blown away. in the process of moving at the moment but once I settle in Im definitely getting a copy of that cinderblock you cant get rid of. Never know what Im going to see when I watch your channel, love it.
Great, his stories can really wind you up. The bio is pretty fascinating and guaranteed to fill the space occupied by several other just as fascinating books! Great having you in the tub! s
Congratulations on your upcoming 5000th, Scott! Glad to have been a part of this journey.
Thanks Prag! It wouldn't be an international bathtub without you! s
congrats-I tried reading in the bathtub and it is so much better than reading in the shower as the books become soggy when wet
@@kennethbass-d7r Makes sense in bathtub not shower, right? S
I found your Pychon videos. I subscribed yesterday. Good luck on 5k!

sorry you missed it but don't worry, you missed absolutely NOTHING! And that nil was just chill.
Rushdie's review of Vineland in NYT was positive.

Thanks Donald! Those are two of my favorite Moores in October! Let us know how they go! s
Congratulations on the big 5000! How do we get added to the map?
Just give me a location to tag on the map and give me the name of a writer or two you like. Your name would be Mark S on map if that's ok? s
