Genese Grill Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Reading Stephen Corey's poetry collection, As My Age Then Was, So I Understood Them, one poem after another. A lucid, mind-expanding world. https://t.co/KstkNcVKg8

Out of stock

Not everyone likes my book, but that @AuerbachKeller has put it at the top of his Humanities books of the year, along with World of Patterns by Rens Bod & Sewell's The Orphic Voice, is overwhelmingly cheering to me! It's Portals, publ. by @thisissplice. https://t.co/XwNAADfjEL

Really nice to be back home, cozy in my own bed, reading about foreign lands instead of actually being there. Finishing, with great pleasure, Jan Morris's Trieste and the Meaning of Nowhere. Then on to Zweig's The World of Yesterday.

@StuHennigan I enjoyed Budianski's Journey to the Edge of Reason (bio of Gödel); Perloff's Edge of Irony: Modernism in the Shadow of the Habsburg Empire; Morris' Trieste and the Meaning of Nowhere; am just finishing Millay's Diaries (Rapture and Melancholy...a pleasure)!

Finished Budiansky's excellent Journey to the Edge of Reason: A Life of Kurt Goedel....and my head is spinning. Now onto Eilenberg's Time of the Magicians: Wittgenstein, Benjamin, Cassirer, Heidegger....trans. by @shauntranslates & lent me by my neighbor.

Brilliant interview with @AuerbachKeller about his new book, Meganets: Software engineer David Auerbach: ‘Big tech is in denial about not being in control’ https://t.co/NHy3Cs7bJY

Joachim Neugroschel translated the version of Joseph Roth's The Radetzky March that I just finished. An epic work of melancholy lyricism & drear presentiments, stunningly rendered into English.
