Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. Amazing
post-modern rant; the Generation X manual;
if you wanna understand you older brother,
read this book!
It's about human connection. It's
about how some people can come into your life
and change your life.
And remove you from your isolation;
your materialism and make you embrace yourself.
Make you become something you were
always meant to be.
Yourself.
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck.
This book is about human connection...the
need for companionship.
No matter who it is. No matter who
you're connecting with, we all need companionship.
This book is about that.
It's gonna resonate with a lot of
you guys. Check it out.
The Outsider by Albert Camus. It's
also called The Stranger in other countries.
It's not a book for pretenders or
phonies. It's an amazing book.
If you liked Gone Girl, you're gonna
like this book. Check it out.
Demian by Hermann Hesse.
This is a coming of age book about
a young man who's afraid to face himself
and be himself.
And he spends most of his youth pretending
but eventually, he does face himself and becomes
himself.
It's quite amazing. You should really
read it....before you die (LAUGHS).
The Sailor Who Fell from Grace With
the Sea.
This is an amazing book by Yukio Mishima.
My favourite book.
It's about how heroes are ultimately
a disappointment.
How everything in society - school,
our parents (unfortunately), everything around
us is about making us into drones and ripping
us down and...
Essentially destroying our potential
and how we have to stand up to that.
How we have to destroy that ourselves,
physically, unlike the other books..which
destroy the ideas in the mind of the reader.
But this is about destroying what seeks
to destroy you.
So yeah, I'm Thabo. I come from Southern
Africa and i work at Open Beacon. Later.
