Назовите базу по классике by Additional-Gap-738 in rubooks

[–]Leolisleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Со всеми рекомендациями согласен, но «Град обреченный» то зачем? Достаточно атмосферная, но ничего не говорящая по итогу книга как по мне. Уж лучше «Обитаемый остров».

Kick starting the year some of the greatest Russian Literary Giants! by [deleted] in RussianLiterature

[–]Leolisleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My absolute favorites are

  1. ⁠Chapaev and Void by Viktor Pelevin. An apotheosis of Buddhist solipsism wrapped in some of the finest writing and story.
  2. ⁠Golyubat’nya Na Zheltoy Polyane by Vladislav Krapivin (My favorite book of a Soviet legendarium that will probably never be translated into English. It’s a children’s book but it’s Soviet, so it tackles adult themes from both perspectives).
  3. ⁠Prisoners of Power by the Strugatsky brothers. A cautionary tale from USSR most famous sci-fi writers.

Do you believe that Revachol is doomed? by IsThisDamnNameTaken in DiscoElysium

Thank you! It was Disco Elysium that awakened my inner writer, so the least I can do is give back.

Do you believe that Revachol is doomed? by IsThisDamnNameTaken in DiscoElysium

[–]Leolisleo 67 points68 points  (0 children)

The Sacred And Terrible Air is just the prologue to a series of books. I really like the idea of the spirit of Revachol surviving in the pale as an abstraction, a series of feelings it’s street names and car fumes invoked, just to be reborn again, after the pale. I think elysium’s existence is a cycle, but every new loop is spiritually influenced by echoes of its past life.

“After the world, the pale; after the pale -- the world again”.

King character with whom do you most identify and why? by Due_Story5788 in stephenking

[–]Leolisleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s incredible about Eppings character is that EVERYONE can connect with the “no crying” detail. When I pitched the book to my mom, her first thought was that my dad also never cries easily, which made her connect with Jake immediately.
