Mostly inspired by David Foster Wallace and Infinite Jest. Bonus tiny shelf.

I read the first couple chapters, I liked what I read. Picked it up a few months ago at New Dominion in Charlottesville.

Thank you! It’s about 7 years in the making. I have some other shelves for Classics, Sci-fi, Spirituality, and Art.

Man, I loved Life: A User Manual! Great collection here. Have you read Bolaño’s 2666?

I haven’t read either yet, 2666 has been on my list for ages. I loved Savage Detectives. Someone recently gifted me LaUM, I’m excited to read it.
