No problem.
Also does narwhal bacon mean anything to you? Just curious.

Check out Butcher's Crossing, also by JW. Zweig and Walser are great, start with the most popular ones, Chess story and Jakob von Gunten.

seconding these

are you this nigga>>7491959?

their best publication was without a doubt Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy in an affordable one-volume, and second to that Richard Holmes' Shelley: The Pursuit in a cheap paperback, but both of those are non-fiction.

shit senpai now that I think about it they put out a LOT of great books. Many Walser short story collections, The Gray Notebook by Pla, Scholem's reminiscence on W. Benjamin, Skylark by Kosztolanyi. a friend of mine spoke highly of some short novel about a chinese lesbian of theirs but I cant remember the name.

That's a consistently high quality set of titles put out by that press. They're keeping quality works from falling into obscurity. I'll mention Autobiography of a Corpse, a short story collection by Sigiszmund Krzhizhanovsky.

>a short story collection by the sounds someone makes when they are being electrocuted

why did edith even agree to marry stoner, lads?

>mocking Siggy Shizh
say that to my face irl and so on, for those are fighting words, and other imprecations
It's not that hard, it's just SIG-iz-mund Shizh-uh-NOFF-skee

Last Words from Montmartre by Qui Miaojin
she's taiwanese, and I unironically believe it to be one of the greatest books ever written

>>7493777
She didn't have a choice: she was afraid

>>7493790
what the hell, that's not even close
just type Krzhizhanovsky pronunciation in YT

>>7493800
glad someone else liked that book, probably my favorite book of 2015

I know calling it raw is banal but I can't think of any other better way to describe it

>>7493777
yeah i keep asking myself that

like, 'you could have said no dude'

A Schoolboy's Diary by Robert Walser

i've never smiled so often while reading a book

>>7491718

I know they published Life and Fate by Grossman too. Haven't read it entirely yet, but I've re-read the first 5 pages a bunch cause I like it so much.
