Evening, ladies and gents, no entry today. I went to the library and got a fuckton of books that I want to get through before the weekend's over. So probably no entry tomorrow either. I do have a few topics in mind, but I've been dry for the past few days; these novels will probably give me some inspiration. I mean, I have three books about crazy loonies, one on a sarcastic Frenchman, one on the deplorable conditions of the Industrial Revolution, and one about an expedition. I got a lot of material to work with here.
But I also recently finished Siddhartha and it really got me thinking. So when I get back, I'll probably ramble for pages about asceticism.
PS. I got The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemmingway too. Good message, good metaphor, but devoting close to a hundred pages on how a senile old fart is trying to catch a marlin and how his hand is cramping up is about as exciting as watching Schindler's List.
