I wish I bought Volume 2 instead. Volume 2 is half the size of Volume 1. But I bought it, and I have a goal of finishing it. So I'm not gonna up! (even though it's been a week since I read it)
The satisfaction of finishing a long or tough read is almost immeasurable. Don't give up! Some of the books I have been reading are As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow, War and Peace, Great Expectations, The Arabian Nights, and poetry by poets such as Wordsworth and Longfellow. I highly recommend these titles!

Are those titles real or fictitious? Because I was unsuccessful in tracking down #1.

The linguistics were so spectral, almost intangible, maybe it's possible to find in Borges library or within Derrida's outside texts, but first we need a cluster of H100s.
