Anyone read any of Osho's work?
It was recommended to me and Im looking for a good place to start.

Started on Overexposed by Sylvére Lotringer (Paladin, 1990). It's broadly about the postwar trivialization of sex in Western culture; more specifically about the systematic, behaviorism-oriented saturation and desensitizing practices used by sex therapists.

I used to own a copy of the "Osho Zen Tarot Deck" - the images from the cards are reproduced online all over the place so a quick google search might give a flavour of his work. Pretty nice stuff, actually.

He's got an interesting history which might be worth a quick scan before deciding how large a pinch of salt to use when reading further.

He was recommended to me by reliable sources. Skimming his works I found a lot of interesting titles, I was more curious in regards to a good place to start.

The Wrecking Crew - the inside story of rock n rolls best kept secret, author Kent Hartman.

I just bought a paperback edition of this last week for $16, before I found someone selling a 1921 Hardcover edition on etsy for $4. Looks like I'll have 2 copies now!

Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry

Re-reading 1984 and Animal Farm. Those two books rank as some my personal favorites.

Next on the block is Crime and Punishment and Dr Zhivago. I also at some point want to pick back up with The Brothers Karamazov.

I'm now on "A Feast for Crows" by George RR Martin. 4th book of the Game of Thrones

Great books! I cant wait to get my 000001984 barcode tat.

I also at some point want to pick back up with The Brothers Karamazov.

same here, well I want to pick it up in the first place.

 

[Funky Ghost]

I broke into my stored books ( I keep them all ) and started re reading books from my teens - 20's. So far they are as good as I remember.

 

[Bloodhammer]

I just got done with 1984 last night!

I've been working on these as well.

 

[Lonesomedave]

Just got my son the ANABASIS by Xenophon. it is the story of Greek mercenaries who decide to fight on the side of Cyrus in an unsuccessful attempt to take the throne of the Persian empire and have to fight their way back out of Persia to get home.

I remember reading it when I was his age (15 or so)...ah, the good old days, when teachers actually made you read classic books.

anyway, it was a hell of a good read and I hope (but don't expect) he will enjoy it.

well, my son is on about page 41 of 150 or so. just got his analysis..."This blows"

oh well

Last "real" book I sat down to read...

Yes, I am looking forward to the movie.
