/lit/ - Literature

/lit/, when you come across a long s in your captcha, do you type s or f?

On a semi related note, I really want to read one of the books digitized by recaptchta and see how many times penis shows up.

I'm in Southwest China, sitting on my un-cushioned wood couch, listening to Cranes, and alternating my reading between...

/lit/ and the Blood Angels WH40k codex

I want to be smart.

What book should I read right now?

Just picked up:

Crime and Punishment - Dostoevsky
Go Down, Moses - Faulkner
The Hamlet - Faulkner
Vita Nuova - Dante
Faust - Goethe
Siddhartha - Hesse
Stephen Hero - Joyce
Forbidden Colors - Mishima
The Sound of Waves - Mishima

On a scale of 1 to Ballin', how out of control am I?

My cousin walked up to me the other day while I was reading. She asked what I was reading and bet that her book was better. I told her I was reading The Plague and explained what it was about. She responded by saying that, while it sounded interesting, she was reading a 'novel' that had a love story and it was probably so much better and then she held it up and I saw that it was teenlit. Then she skipped off laughing.
