Can we have a BotNS thread? I just read the whole thing and loved a lot of it, although felt fatigued near the end and felt myself getting a little lost.

Think it's about time to begin my second reading of Book of the New Sun. Any tips for the mindset I should be in or of certain details to look out for? I'm almost tempted to keep a journal to keep track of stuff, but that would probably be too much work.

Do we jerk it to traps because of our IQ, or does our IQ come from jerking it to traps?

Anything can be adapted (adopt is when rich people buy Chinese kids)

But I don't think it would be very good and I think you would lose a lot of what makes the thing great
I hope they never try

I just started Book of the New Sun yesterday.

I'm really, really enjoying it. It's unlikely any other SFF novel i've read and unlike any other novel in generally really.

It paints such a beautiful and wonderous image in my mind as I read.

The only annoying thing is taht the copy I have on my ereader has weird spelling mistakes, anyone else have this issue?

It's science fantasy as described by Wolfe with main influences being Borges and Chesterton so do the math.
>>7889874
It's heavily influenced by Borges, many themes he wrote are elaborated upon.

What stands out to you as the best examples of Severian being stupid and not understanding what's happening around him?
