tang dynasty poetry. but also the nine sorrows or whatever that piece from the chu ci is called, since that's the inaugural autumn poem of the chinese tradition.

They donβt get autumn in the orient. It just gets cold, so bodies of water freeze up. Then you can dig out the frozen clams and boil them in noodles with a cream made of water buffalo milk. They call it Chow Maine.

Going to reread War and Peace alongside classic science fiction, like I used to do back in high school and college. Autumn and winter months are the most comfy for reading any long tome

That sounds fun. I've never read that classic 19th Century American fiction. Thanks for the rec. >>24697253
I'm tempted for a War and Peace reread as well. I'm also looking to dip my tow into classic scifi after I am done my current stack.

What titles you plan on reading? I've got Lucifiers Hammer as my current but will go into either Gateway or High Crusade as Autumn approaches.

Well, I am reading Dune right now. And i an really enjoying it. I found a scifi chart so I am going to use that. It seems there are a big three (Clarke, Asimov, Heinlein) so I will make an effort to read a few of their novels.

love him too, already read Michael Kohlhaas, I should try and find also some paintings to pair him with. Picrel by Munch comes close, also Kokoshka's paintings which Trakl knew personally. Music-wise? Something by late Mahler? Schonberg is way too abstract for Trakl in my opinion
Bump. I just moved to the South from living in Ca for a decade where there is absolute zero seasonal variety. I can't wait to take some comfy autumnal lit out into the woods next month.
