Difficult Books

[Mark Kohut]

And I'll bet the list is much more garth than emily. I'll bet you you can break the email code at PW to woo Ms. Emily.
 
Speaking of existential phenomenology, I resent myself for bothering to waste time with this thread. "you talkin to me
again, Kohut?"..
 
See you back in AtD.....a non-difficult book to read that is as difficult as any/most? on this list.....

Actually by way of me commenting on my own brilliant last post since obviously no one else will, Proust's whole thing is existential phenomenology.  Whether you want to say that makes Proust philosophy or the phenomenologists fictionalists whatevers.
