I just bought J.G. Ballard's Concrete Island and a collection of H.P. Lovecraft stories to follow it up with.




Finished Concrete Island a while ago - interesting read, bit dry though. All British and metaphorical and what not...

H.P. Lovecraft's a delight.




I love reading his struggle with writing dialog though. It's great.

"Ontogeny and Phylogeny" by Stephen Jay Gould
"A Farewell to Arms" by Ernest Hemingway

And I just read the famous philosophical work, "Existentialism is a Humanism" by Jean-Paul Sartre.

The chemistry of conscious states by Allan Hobson - It was great.

For my South African class:
Country of My Skull by Antjie Something-or-other. Good book about the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in post-apartheid South Africa. Really shows you how fucked up some people can be and how good others can be.

The Smell of Apples by Mark Behr I think. Story of a white family in apartheid SA. It was ok. Interesting writing style.

The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.
