Vorschlaege, welche Buecher ich als naechstes lesen soll: immer gerne, her damit!
Wobei: zumeist endet es dann damit, dass ein neuer Buecherstapel, immer hoechst einsturzgefaehrdet auf meinem Wohnzimmertisch und dem Bett fuer die abendliche Lektuere emporwaechst.
Einen besonderen Reiz sind auch die Buchlisten, die Prominente zusammenstellen. Zum Beispiel Patti Smith, immer fuer Verweise und Inspirationen gut. Fuer openculture.com hat sie eine hoechst interessante Liste – natuerlich mit Buechern von Rimbaud – erstelllt:
