Summer reading list

Deleted member 20240 · Jul 26, 2018

While sitting on my ass, doing nothing today, I recalled a moment from a few days back. While still at my last job, I was approached by a customer who had far too much money and far too few problems. Her beloved pet cat had recentley passed and she was looking for a book to help her cope with her grief. I pointed her in the right direction. Yes we had a book for that. I understand, losing a loved one is tough. This memory has inspired me to accumulate a few reading suggestions for all of you. Maybe we can start a book club!View attachment 44622 View attachment 44623 View attachment 44624 View attachment 44625 View attachment 44626 View attachment 44627 View attachment 44628 View attachment 44629 View attachment 44630 View attachment 44631 View attachment 44632 View attachment 44633 View attachment 44634 View attachment 44635 View attachment 44636 View attachment 44637

A friend of mine, knowing my squatting tendencies, and the fact that I once said, "I wish I could live in a museum... when I was a child in Minnesota I would visit the natural history museums with reconstructed dinosaurs skeletons and stuff and wish I could hide there when it was closing time and just secretly live in the museum," got me a copy of this children's book, From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler."

It concerns a couple of kids who basically do just that... squat an art museum.

I'm looking forward to reading it this summer!View attachment 44638

The Dead Father by Donald Barthelme is some wild, wild shit....I love that jawn....it's different, you might like it. Every chapter is like a different book.

"The Spell of the Sensuous: Perception and Language in a More-Than-Human World" by David Abram used to be my go-to book recommendation. i kind of want to check it out again - made a really big impression on me, clearly. one of those hard to sum up but kind of a really interesting overall line of thought about ecology, consciousness, and how the world got to the fucked up mess it's in now... like Ishmael but for grown-ups. ;p
