Writer's Block: More Island Time
Call of Cthulu by H.P. Lovecraft.
I would need something to scare me away from the water surrounding the island. I would always keep a watchful eye on the shore for Cthulu who might just rise up from the abysmal deep. I have Lovecraft to thank for my ponderings, ponderings that frequently find me contemplating the abyss, infinity, absurdity, and horror.
Eyescream by Henry Rollins.
Henry Rollins is someone I need to just tell me how it is like a man. No flowery language. No lyrical content. Just the truth laid out like a canvas for me to take in. Henry would make me realize that, if I take the probability of being found on a desert island into account, I am probably screwed.
The Stranger by Albert Camus.
This short story has always helped me because it taught me acceptance. It taught me that when there is only one option you simply have to learn to live with it. It also forced me to think about the absurdity that can be found in many aspects of life.
Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler
Much of my life has involved Uncle Dolf in one manner or another. It's only fitting that I should spend my last days reading about an idea that seemed almost doomed to fail but almost succeeded which, in a sense, would probably speak volumes about whatever current escape plan I might try to hatch in a vain attempt to survive.
The Bible
I would need something to wipe my ass with.
