Summary: Invitation to the voyage
Comment: Any reccomendation is personal, but I've read this little book many times and over the years it's remained a favourite. I personally prefer it to "flowers" mainly because of the dark humour. This is a good translation, others that I've bought as presents for friends don't seem so pure for some reason. My favourites in this collection are: the dog and the Scent Bottle,Temptations,The Generous Gambler,Which One is Real? Trink!The Looking Glass... those are the ones that are permenantly marked in the copy I have before me...I love some of the phrasing : "having a crowd-bath," or "melodious cascades"... but why not read it yourself and email me your favourites? The last words belong the man himself: "We should always be drunk. That is the be-all and end-all, the only choice there is. To no longer feel the horrible burden of Time, which racks your shoulders and blows you downwards to the earth, you must make yourself ceaselessly drunk. But drunk on what? Wine, poetry, virtue - whichever you prefer;only, get drunk."
