My experience with him is unusual since the only thing I read of his works was his treatise on writing, a sort of memoir in which he recounts his experience with writing and work ethic.

I’ve been using their service for two years now. It’s open source and encrypted, and the upload speeds exponentially improved.

I’m sorry I don’t understand what you mean.

Definitely. I also noticed how little these supposed economists know what marxism is. Their entire doctrine is incoherent.

OK, I will think about it. Thanks.

I never bothered with the social aspect of book platforms, so I use an offline tracker. Do you recommend me creating one?

The Garden of the Finzi-Continis by Giorgio Bassani. Although initially I couldn’t grasp much of what was happening in the prologue, as I progress it grows on me more and more.

Throwback to when they announced releasing a simple phone. Fun times.

And most chapters are basically one-page, easily digestible passages, so it isn’t a hard read.

It’s always been a family (indeed, a national) tradition to watch the world cup. Son inherits his loyalty to a club from father just like clan names. However, in the last two cups I became only loyal to a good match of football, to whomever knows how to treat a ball like a gentleman. Perhaps it’s the nostalgia or the collective bondage which still draws me like millions of other fans to watch it play out every four years.

That said, nothing beats a good, friendly match with the pals in the local field; or the recess matches between the cramped walls in school, using a home-made nylon/paper ball.

Soccer in Sun and Shadow by Uruguayan journalist Eduardo Galeano. The passion in which he recounts the sport’s history from its modest inception up to its consumerist rebranding, and the vividness in which he describes its beautiful moments and dismal tragedies, is simply breathtaking. Galeano’s words on paper capture the art of the sport better than any camera and TV screen.

I will be writing and posting a review of the book once I am done reading it.

I am sure the United Kingdom, among others, may indeed be happy to steal other cultures’ artefacts, in deviation of international treaties.

No, I am not the dev. Perhaps I should’ve clarified this.

“evil corporation” is quite the tautology.

I’m afraid this is not an ebook reader, but a book tracker.

This is an offline tracker, so it doesn’t compare per se. There were talks about integrating bookwyrm into the app, but as of now there is no public API.
