That’s an awfully interesting list, but I’m still wondering how I didn’t even know there was a volume 1 of Diary of a Philosophy Student!! Admittedly, it came out at a time when my life was very frantic, but even so…. !

I came upon [& ended up acquiring] the French translation of László F Földényi’s Melankólia. As I was leafing through the book, I felt the name of this author was somehow familiar, but I couldn’t pinpoint where/when I had heard/read it before. Then, back home, I realized that it was here, #21 on your list. I like it when an author or a book keeps appearing here & there. Have you read this other book by László F Földényi?

Great list. Lots there I’m looking forward to as well plus a few to add! Not sure how I had managed to miss that Calasso coming in April, looks really interesting.
