Dense and full of paradoxical reversals which feel born of a post-Nietzschean 20th century. I’m not sure if these are ironies because I don’t know fully what irony is and because they feel encased in, or baked into, Cioran’s sense of grammar.

Burning through this and enjoying it in spite of its relentless pessimism. Cioran is a great stylist and that lightens it a bit. This makes me want to read all of Cioran and all of Nietzsche. Don’t read this when tired though! I have been doing that and dropping a lot of the balls I’m supposed to be juggling

Maybe not the best guy to go on a long car ride with.
