🦋 Ohne Bücher verfaulen die Freuden
"Without books, joy rots away."-- Elias Canetti, The Human Province: Notes 1942 - 1972 Among her selection of libri indispensabili, Marina Taffetani lists two books (the two earliest books) by Elias Canetti, of whom I had never heard before. Looks to be a really worthwhile author.He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1981; in his speech before the Nobel banquet, he said, "Heute, seit Hiroshima, weiss jeder, was Krieg ist, und dass jeder es weiss, ist unsere einzige Hoffnung." -- "Today, since Hiroshima, everyone knows what war is; and that everyone knows this is our only hope."

You really have to read his books, I think you'd love them. He's one of the greatest authors ever, in my opinion.
My favorite one is definitely "Die Blendung" (Auto-da-Fe), but if you like aphorisms you should also read "Die Provinz des Menschen" (The Human Province).
Here in Italy his most appreciated one is the first part of his autobiography, "Die gerettete Zunge" (The Tongue Set Free), which is also a very good book.

I defer to Marina, who I'll wager knows more, and agree that Auto-da-Fe is the one. The Canetti portrait in Elegy For Iris is a hatchet job.
