Well since no one was interested in my last post...  I'm going to do a program of reading through all the works of Albert Camus and taking notes. I expect a treasure trove of psychological and philosophical insights. (<-- I'm serious, but I figured that'd make you laugh 'norm  ) Strangely enough the day you wrote this, I was looking at a youtube video and the first recommended video for me was: Albert Camus on Nihilismhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rT8CunsWPYI don't do much youtubeing, so I have no idea why this was recommended. It's really not worth looking at. You guessed correctly, I am not much of a Camus fan. The video is an interview primarily about his stage adaptation of Dostoyevsky's Demons. |

LOL. Well you could aim for more of course. Though with some of the theological books I don't think I'd want to do more than one a week. It'd probably take me about 12 hours to read a 150,000 word book. That'd be quite enough pleasure reading for me in a week, considering that I'd also have reading from college |

Finished Plato's Republic.
Been reading some classic weird tales:
"The Wendigo" and "The Willows" by Algernon Blackwood
"The White People" by Arthur Machen (an old favorite of mine)
Also read a children's book from the Irish renaissance, The Boy Who Knew What the Birds Said by Padraic Colum. Excellent, though not as great as his The King of Ireland's Son.
Just started St. Dionysius' On the Divine Names.

Reading is the spice of life for those whose life has no spice Do audiobooks count? What I am not reading is another odd suggestion by youtube. Google thinks it knows me. Pirated version of Nietzsche in 90 Minutes. Google / youtube is no Netflix. The greatest thing about Netflix is that it's has become so clear it absolutely knows what I like that it saves me the time of watching movies and television. |

So I bought Byzantium: A History by John Haldon just because it was cheap and I've read next to nothing about the Byzantine empire.
Has anyone here read it? Did you like it? Is it anyhow biased?

No. But I have read the History of the Byzantine State by by George Ostrogorsky and I am currently perusing through it a second time. If you hate fanciful narratives like I do, this is the book for you. Lots of footnotes that are truly worthwhile. |

Please let us know if it's different Well it is that, mixed in with diplomacy, subterfuge, intrigues, etc. It is a very dry text, but I am the sort of person that will pick up volume 1 of Cambridge Ancient History (3000-1700 BC) and read about dug up pottery every evening. |

So far it's great- everything I'd want from a gothic novel. There's also a lot of amusing anti-Catholic caricature going on.

Flying through Everyday Saints by Archimandrite Tikhon Shevkunov. An amazing book, hard to put down.
"Everyday Saints" is a wonderful book so far and easy to read. About 3/4 of the way through it. I agree, it IS tough to put it down. I'm finding it to be spiritually helpful and very interesting with the insight into Russian Orthodox culture and the various experiences during the Soviet era. It has many small vignettes of various people's experiences, as well as some bits from the Prologue of Ohrid. I haven't read that one yet, but now it's on my mind. |

Reading Lolita in Tehran, by Azar Nafisi. 60 pages in, it's fascinating.
Sounds like a text born from a title. Never heard of it, but I could probably write a synopsis of it anyway. Do the chapters like the title (or it is too sophisticated to have chapters and has sections or worse yet, scenes) allude to "Western" works or authors who offer petite bourgeois "revolution"? And I am going to guess it is a memoir. I don't know Arabic, so I am also going to guess it is a woman. Life before, during, after revolution? Is she a Professor and decided to become some sort of self-exiled voice of freedom and the true Iran? We had some professors like that at the Universities I went to. I love folks who are self-exiled. Anyway, sounds awful. At least my version. I am going to stop thinking about it now. Let me know, if I am wrong. |

You're such a curmudgeon From the Amazon blurb: Every Thursday morning for two years in the Islamic Republic of Iran, a bold and inspired teacher named Azar Nafisi secretly gathered seven of her most committed female students to read forbidden Western classics. As Islamic morality squads staged arbitrary raids in Tehran, fundamentalists seized hold of the universities, and a blind censor stifled artistic expression, the girls in Azar Nafisi’s living room risked removing their veils and immersed themselves in the worlds of Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Henry James, and Vladimir Nabokov. In this extraordinary memoir, their stories become intertwined with the ones they are reading. Reading Lolita in Tehran is a remarkable exploration of resilience in the face of tyranny and a celebration of the liberating power of literature. |

Reading Lolita in Tehran is a remarkable exploration of resilience in the face of tyranny and a celebration of the liberating power of literature.From the Wikipedia entry: Nafisi left Iran on June 24, 1997 and moved to the United States, where she wrote Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books, a book where she describes her experiences as a secular woman living and working in the Islamic Republic of Iran. In the book, she declares "I left Iran, but Iran did not leave me."
Nafisi has held the post of a visiting fellow and lecturer at the Foreign Policy Institute of Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) in Washington, DC and has served on the Board of Trustees of Freedom House, a United States nongovernmental organization (NGO) which conducts research and advocacy on democracy.[8] |

We cannot legislate morality by passing laws controlling firearms. The only evil we can combat lies within our hearts. We need stronger laws to protect the moral foundation of society against the evil of gay marriage. |

Do you consider Wiesel's Night to be holopr0n? It's the worst. It and Anne Frank's Diary. But I usually don't read the articles. Schindler's List is where it's at, but that'd be on another thread. |

Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.
