Not all collections hold things you can touch. This one holds worlds that breathe, selves that dissolve, and realities that refuse to hold their shape. These are the fictions that live on the edge of what language can contain - and sometimes just beyond. Admission is free, through entry requires a signed waiver: the curator cannot be held responsible for any transformations that occur upon your exit. We welcome specimen recommendations!

Based on the list/book published in 2006, general editor Peter Boxall.

Books recommended by musician Lucy Dacus, a solo artist and member of the band boygenius. Pulled from her goodreads list.

puts beret on a jaunty angle ‘why yes i went to Oxbridge and go skiing on my holibobs with papa, why do you ask?’ takes a hit of tobacco flavoured vape, puts asterisk in margin of the obscure classic i’m ‘reading’

the list for people who want to look ‘well read’ and need some books to name drop - look no further

if you have read them, more power to you, but this is explicitly about the people who claim to have read them but can’t read instructions on pasta

Translated german language literature that is considered by many to be "core" reading from the modern and contemporary eras - meaning 1880 onwards, making it very readable. 🇩🇪🇦🇹🇨🇭 I usually kept it to one book per author to make this a starting off point (sometimes added additional faves). Suggestions welcome!

well, this is all the books read by rory in the gilmore girls tv show.

A compilation of books (mostly fiction) in which the main character/s set out on a journey, leading to moments of meditation, introspection, meandering walks through the memory, conflicts with both the self, the path, and others, and ultimately: change, for both the characters and the reader. In these novels, the journey is more important than the destination.

Recommendations are welcome!

This list gathers over 300 books mentioned or read on the show so you can sip coffee, order in, and read along with Rory Gilmore and the other Stars Hollow residents.

A challenge to read all books mentioned or referenced in the American TV Show, Gilmore Girls. Books are referenced by all characters in the show. The Mojo Collection, dictionaries, instructional books, and travel books will not be included in the list.

Happy reading!

Works I would consider german literary classics. "German" in this context means "written in German", not "written by a German author", therefore Swiss, Austrian, and other authors will also be included on this list, provided they wrote their works in German.

this is a list consisting of some German books that are considered classics by the internet (and also me) in their original language. some books may be by Austrian/Swiss authors but they had an impact on German literature. it's a work in progress, so let me know what books I’m missing 🫡

all the classics you might (have had to) read in school in Germany

My favs/tbr from the books Rory and Lorelai referenced in Gilmore Girls ❤️

Books that tell stories from Indian religions. From Hinduism and beyond. Books that brings forth the history of religious characters from varying perspectives.

I~we come to know the language of good: Toki Pona, a conlang composed of only ~140 words! Toki Pona was inspired by Taoist philosophy & pidgin languages and is designed to help speakers focus on the essentials by expressing maximal meaning with minimal complexity.

This list contains official instructional books for learning how to speak Toki Pona, original stories written for beginner tokiponists, and a number of books that have been translated into Toki Pona.
