Hey I'm new here Let me see how weird your books are

Howdy fellow readers and writers, just how weird are talking about here? I'm a self-published writer and I do enjoy creeping my friends out with my stories, so Hit Me With Your Best Shot!

Well, there's weird and there's Weird. But in the spirit of sharing my enthusiasm for favourite books, I'll offer up The Transitive Vampire. Lots of unexpected overlap with my various reading interests in that one.

>2 elenchus: I love The Transitive Vampire!! I lost my copy over the years but thought that this was great for making grammar worthwhile. What a great surprise to see it mentioned.

My weirdest book is perhaps Grand Erratum, a 1827 work that "proves" that Napoleon was a purely mythical figure.

My most capital-letter Weird book is presumably The Weird.

>4 AndreasJ: yeesh gotta check it out for sure

>3 SRB5729: didn't see that one coming

My weirdest book is likely Etidorhpa: a 19th-century edition with the lovely Augustus Knapp illustrations. It rates as capital-W to some extent as well. I like to pair it with Voyage to Arcturus for the whole chthonic-ouranian axis.

"My adepts stand upright; their head above the heavens, their feet below the hells."

>6 Amir_Assaf: Well, many people find an appreciation of such topics to rise to Weird with a capital W. Still, for some reason loved that book. Not sure if it counts, but I do enjoy the works of Edward Gorey.

>2 elenchus:
Thank you for taking a weird approach to answering the question asked. I have looked into The Transitive Vampire and ordered a copy. It is a type of weird I like too. :-)

Ha! Definitely interested to hear what you think of it when you've read through it.
