So /lit/, let's talk about those philosophy books you read and found funny or generally enjoyable as pieces of writing regardless of the pleasure derived from its philosophical content.
Mine
>Spinoza's Ethics, especially the Appendix to Part 1 - reads like Gorgias 2: Pantheistic Bogaloo
>The Birth of Tragedy, which I've genuinely found more poetic than Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Nietzsche's metaphors were far, far better than what they became. Just think about the part about the Apollinean epic, holy shit.
>Cyclonopedia because really, it's an Iranian dude raving about Deleuze and Lovecraft in a semi-novelistic form. What's not to like? The fact I was able to use his concepts of Taqiyyah and Cthulhoid Ethics to affabulate and impress a professor in an exam just makes it better.
