just binged these 2 kinos. anything else like them?
If you enjoyed Salammbo I recommend reading Flaubert's the Temptation of Saint Anthony. They have common aesthetic motifs but the latter gets much wilder very fast. Can be a bit of a headache sometimes because of how dense it is but it's short and definitely worth a read imo
>>24751130Joseph McElroy has been writing some book set in the Bronze Age for like 50 years now and probably will never finish it but if he ever did, that'd be one

>>24751171I've only read Plus - very interesting experience, but not going to read any more McElroy in the foreseeable future
>>24751130I loved Ancient Evenings that was such a bizarre book. At times it was downright disgusting but it did keep me reading

>>24751175>English translations>1906 – Charles Carrington>1932 – Willis L. Parker>1972 – Robert Baldickknow which one is the best?
>>24751130If you like salammbo you should read Robert Howard and Clark Ashton Smith
>>24751824I read the Parker but I'd definitely go with the Baldick-- I'm familiar with his Penguin Flaubert's 3 Takes translation, as well as his selections of the Goncourt Journals. He's good
