Great episode. 

 

Hey Usersub. I like making Simpsons gifs and I'm bored. So, have you ever  had a favorite scene you've wanted a gif of, but you are too lazy or  ignorant? - GIFs -

I started reading The Three-Body Problem - a science fiction novel written by the Chinese writer Liu Cixin.

From the first sentences, from the first chapters, I understand that this is a masterpiece.

I'm reading The Sound and the Fury - the magnum opus of the American writer William Faulkner. It is quite difficult to perceive the text. In the novel, the author uses the principle of "double vision" to reveal the same problem and the flow of consciousness. It is quite difficult to read modernist texts of the early or first half of the twentieth century. I am currently reading a book and writing research on modernist literature. At https://fixgerald.com/ I found a useful plagiarism checker with which I check plagiarism of my texts and make sure that they are of the highest quality.

"Invisible Cities" (1972) by Italo Calvino is an interesting read.

 

Book presents itself as a conversation between explorer (called Marco Polo) and emperor (called Kublai Khan). Emperor asks explorer to talk about different cities, and explorer tells about them - however, those cities are not real. In fact, they are imaginary. However, through the stories of these imaginary cities, themes and reflections on culture, language, life, time, memory etc. are explored and discussed.

 

It's a wonderful book if you like symbolism or oeuvres that bring "food to thought".

There is nice essay about it written by Isaac Yuen, if you are curious. Also, obviously, Invisible Cities is  pretty influential, so there was an opera inspired by it, and a ballet performance with dedicated music album. Of course, there are drawings and fan-art based on it, as well.

People Who didn t read in Young years should read again with children or alone some Fairy tales, children books with positive throughs. Some of them are nicer and realistic than adult self steem books. Or, maybe, do It for only remember the messages, and aestheticals, etc

Easy children books to read and enjoy choosing. I remember them, I wanted 1 more 😅, Beauty Sleeper, but It was not possible. Bambi was great. There were a lot of ending, not all good, but It was easy to learn there are múltiple options in Life to enjoy It.
