i'm used to hearing of him from political nutcases. i just went down through his wiki tho knowing ur good character garyoak and there's definitely some interesting stuff there

A lot of fascists and other right-wingers do read him, he routinely appears on book lists from /pol/ and also right-wingers on /lit/ but I find his writing is interesting even if I don't agree with a lot of his ideas.

He was anti-semitic and a radical traditionalist. Wouldn't call him insane though.

i also feel like since i saw the life of pi movie i don't need to read the book, but i'm a casual.

The movie is great, but there's a lot of really cool philosophy and stuff they couldn't show in the movie. I'd definitely recommend reading the book!

brothers karamazov is a behemoth of a book to go picking up out of nowhere. notes from the underground would be a better place to start with dostoyevsky

life of pi - good story.

omnivore's dilemma - nice bit of non-fiction

blink and the tipping point from Malcolm Gladwell contain good timeless concepts

the hobbit is something i want to re-read soon, i watched some scenes from the movies and it made me reminisce

some others that don't come to mind immediately
