>i dont blacklist wordsworth classics as a company from my mind
>i dont take them out only during LSD trips or while drunk to laugh at the poorly photoshopped tim and eric tier covers until my sides rupture and my throat is bleeding

When I'm able to afford the rea deal, I will sell or give away my Wordsworth's. Until then I am hiding them behind other books. Tbh I rather have Mein Kampf or Archeofuturism in my shelf than those shitty editions. It's embarrassing.

I don't really mind Wordsworth, some of the covers are god awful, but I've never had any issues with them really, got the 'big 4' Dostoyevsky novels and Ulysses in Wordsworth and I never particularly cared.
