addiction: persisted action in the face of mounting consequences

[travisezell]

I couldn't wait. I'm a bad human being.

• Don DeLillo's Ratner's Star ($0.96)
• Don DeLillo's Valparaiso: A Play ($0.12)
• Will Self's Cock and Bull ($0.02)
• William Gibson's Spook Country ($1.55)

Also sitting in my cart for future purchases are DeLillo's Americana and The Names, Pynchon's Against the Day, Burroughs's Cities of the Red Night, a book of plays by John Patrick Shanley, short stories by Jeanette Winterson, and a collection of plays and poetry by Wyndham Lewis. But I limited my purchases to the above four. Even at $3.99 shipping per book I'm still getting a good price.

Not like I have a shortage of books. Or a surplus of disposable income.
