Consigli di lettura per gli amanti di Casa di Foglie
🔶 Se ti è piaciuto Casa di Foglie di Danielewski allora poterbbero piacerti anche: 🔹 La biblioteca di Babele - Borges (racconto contenuto nel libro Finzioni) 🔹 La vita: Istruzioni per l'uso - Perec (labirinto) 🔹 Il processo - Kafka 🔹 Film notturno - Marisha Pessl (thriller) 🔹 Il Magus - Fowles 🔹 La paziente silenziosa - Michaelides (thriller, bellissimo) 🔹 Strangers - Yamada (storia di fantasmi, giapponese) 🔹 Utsubora (vol. 1 e 2)- Nakamura (mystery thriller; graphic novel in due volumi) 🔹 La troga - Rugarli 🔹 Le venti giorante di Torino - De Maria (un bel horror, molto ansiolitico) 🔹 Rabbits - Terry Miles (molto particolare; non mi è piaciuto moltissimo, ma mi ha dato certi incubi D:) 🔹 Trilogia della città di K. - Agota Kristof 🔹 L'etá inquieta - Starobinec (super weird, bellissimo!) 🔹 One Bloody Thing After Another - Joey Comeau (horror, bellissimo!) 🔹 The Number 73304-23-4153-6-96-8 - Thomas Ott (graphic novel senza testo) 🔹 Il demone di Maxwell + The Raw Shark Texts (in italiano: I pensieri dello squalo) - Steven Hall 🔶 Questi invece mi sono stati consigliati, ma devo ancora leggerli: 🔹 The Way Through Doors - Jesse Ball

"I tell him that a virus need not do harm. That not all self-propagating code is malicious. Our father's virus would never delete files. Would never steal passwords or spy on the intimate moments of strangers. Would not spread like cancer, but like a story. Would slip through fibre optic cables to cross oceans, would pass like radio waves through the walls of houses that nobody even knows are haunted. A ghost story that computers tell one another in the dark."
—from Malagash, by Joey Comeau

I remembered Lockpick Pornography by Joey Comeau today and went to search for it, still available for free and an excellent read.

"i've wasted a lifetime pretending to be me" (2013 - Emily Horne and Joey Comeau) / "da oracle" (2020 - Anatola Howard (maroonracoon))
I'VE WASTED A LIFETIME PRETENDING TO BE ME: a softer world is one of those things that i felt like i was seeing imitators around every corner for years. what are we in the dark? maybe we're a christmas tree glowing softly. maybe not. (@kaerran)
DA ORACLE: this comic by maroonracoon messes me up but in such a pleasant way. i think this comic speaks for itself. i have my atoms reworked and reconfigured every time i see this comic. (@godsbride)
("i've wasted a lifetime pretending to be me" is comic #1010 of the webcomic a softer world by Emily Horne and Joey Comeau. It ran from 2003 to 2015.
"da oracle" is a comic by Anatola Howard (maroonracoon on twitter) and the artist's self-proclaimed favourite.)

Was scrolling through your theme “of course we will hurt each other” and was wondering if you have/might make a post something like “love is still here and will be here probably forever but I have to leave for my own good” if it makes sense
