Diary of a madman - lu xun
`95 was a bad year, supposedly. Obama and Chabon wrote something, might be interested in reading the former actually.
Silence of the Lambs
>>7800528

I can't say I've ever looked to see when a book was released.

I feel old just being 19.
>>7800726
>>7800721

Eventually there'll be a time where this seems young in comparison. And it only gets worse each year.
Fuck it.
>>7800727
I feel you my man.
>>7800758
Don't worry about this shit now. Enjoy yourself while you can. Life is still great at 40 just a bit more complicated. I still
Party like I'm 20. I just have kids now and have to be more responsible. Enjoy your god damn life. Age is just a
Number.
>>7800771
Can't really enjoy myself t b h.
Got a lot of court troubles, while I'm looking forward to the problems being behind me I'll probably be 21-22 by the time I can forget about it and move on completely
>>7800774
20-21-- you will look back and laugh at your own ignorance. Don't worry anon, you'll b fine. Learn from your mistakes. The past is the past.
>>7800784
Hope so man. Hope so.

split between Ian McEwan-Black Dogs and Mo Yan- Republic of Wine
Granted this is the only possible answer since it's the only book I've read from that year, but goddamn if it isn't a fucking knockout.
>>7800586
I'm thinking either Blade Runner 2 or High Fidelity.
>>7800700
This. I feel like I've already used up my best years like Rimbaud
I haven't read anything good from 1991 so I'm going to say none of them for now.
Also I'm cringing and want to apologize on behalf of my peers who picked American Shopping List by White Tao Lin.
