What would Reepbot say (4)

[Columbo]

Very insensitive thing of you to say. Considering her dog recently passed away, I assume not well at all.

well i didn't know that. sorry to hear that.

 

[Columbo]

[Columbo]

Confronting authors push boundaries. May not be morally sound or good but always thought provoking. Makes one examine their own moral codes and ethics. But I listed a very small snapshot of the hundreds of authors and poets I love.
The Batman is a good guy tho Frau Moosen. A tad dark but fights for justice!
Hope you are well and thriving in Deutschland.

I did love discussing and analysing (some of) those authors a million years ago when I did that (mainly at school! and then studying Deutsch at uni) but I find reading them on my own a bit confronting. They can be very bleak.... If I’m reading on my own I prefer things that won’t depress me.

This topic is very ... well.... topical, because I have just joined a book club here. We just discussed Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, which I LOVE (!) and next up is Auntie Mame, which I had never heard of.... gotta find a copy somehow....

What are y‘all reading over there?!

On a bit of a Hesse binge at the moment.
Re-reading Steppenwolf which I read a very long time ago.
And "The Prodigy" by Hesse as well.
The latter being short but so very powerful and heartfelt. Highly recommend.

I just picked up some new books from my op shop, was there donating some of my discards
Steven Fry's autobiography; and a book about Chanel's life.

I like factual and history books at this phase, can't seem to get interested in fiction lately
Though I have classic lists to work through.....

OMG Really?! Hesse! You are getting right stuck into it. You should come and visit over here!

Maybe I should reconsider. I could read him in his original words. That’d probably be good exercise for my brain. I‘ll have to check out how confronting he is....

Hm. I can‘t do history. Too dry. Do like an interesting biography though.

One of my favourites, and it started with The Prodigy. I’ve read just about everything that’s been translated.
