A human heart posted:even if the chapter was just about ropes, that still sounds interesting because ropes were important in the days of sailing ships. i'm starting to think these readers don't actually like reading! rope is still important

Seven Samurai Swept Away in a River by Jung Young Moon is really funny. I wish I could travel somewhere with him

Now if you're reading the book on a telephone you will never in a trillion years experience the book. You'll think you have experienced it, but you'll be cheated. It's such a sadness that you think you've read a book on your loving telephone. Get real.

Gertrude Perkins posted:I recently read Geoffrey Household's Rogue Male, which on the surface is a pulpy pursuit/escape novel, but ends up having some pretty cool things going on with the protagonist stripping away layers of his humanity in order to survive. Plus there was a quote from the Times on the cover so it counts as real literature. Living in a burrow like a rodent is prime real literature material

Bandiet posted:As long as we're on literary non-fiction, what's some good poetic nature writing? Something like Eugène Marais or J.A. Baker. Pilgrim at Tinker Creek if you haven't read it. She quotes a lot from Jean-Henri Fabre and while idk if I would call him poetic his insect books are very cool too.
