I come back to Pratchett every couple of years, his work is simply amazing.
Having said that, Rincewind has to be my least favorite protagonist of all Discworld protagonists. I only liked him in "The Last Continent".

Lesbian With A Gun

a 1965 edition of Ninteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell.



I took a snapshot of it because, for some reason, you could also buy a poster of this exact cover for £12 today, to which I did/and have.

After stumbling my way semi-aimlessly through fundamentals of philosophy I've determined that focusing my curiosity would serve me far better in the long run. I've settled on music aesthetics as a fair point of ingress and found my way to Roger Scruton's The Aesthetics of Music, a comprehensive account of the nature and significance of music from the perspective of modern philosophy.

Scruton is named as a leading authority on aesthetics, and his bibliography includes titles on other aspects of philosophy, politics, literature, architecture, and modern culture. He was named by a gent who is creating a YouTube channel on the subject of classical music appreciation.

I'm particularly interested in Scruton’s remarks about the devices of musical tension and sympathetic response as an opportunity for emotional development and I’m interested in exploring that space.

I love the Philosophize This! podcasts for general knowledge about philosophy. It’s pretty much 101 and the guy is good at explaining it.

Once I get settled into my new place I plan on going on a 'TAKE TWO' reading binge.

Off the top of my head:

The Foundation Trilogy
The first two Hyperion novels
The Windup Girl
Blindness
On the Beach
Carrion Comfort
Ghost Story
Koko
The Road
American Gods
Iron Coffins
Stranger Beside Me
Sphere
Stinger
Survivor (the one from the Fight Club dude)
Ender's Game and Speaker for the Dead
The first four Michael Slade books
Phases of Gravity

That's enough for now.

Not sure if this essay collection exists with an english title, or if it's a danish collection. Either way, it's good stuff, although I've only read 3 essays so far: One about U2 and two about the supposed death of literature.

I love essay collections, but it's hard to find good ones and it's not the genre with the highest book count, really. I currently only know of a couple other one's I'd like to get.

Does it have a foreword by Bono?

Seriously: I always meant to read The Satantic Verses. Is it worth it? Over my head?
