Modest Stein

[konstantya]

The covers are gorgeous!  Both of these are by Modest Stein, who did a lot of work for the pulps, and especially Love Story.  (Also, his personal life was absolutely WILD.  He was an anarchist, moved to New York and lived with his cousin and his cousin’s girlfriend, then got into a ménage situation where they were both sleeping with the girlfriend, then he was supposed to be the back-up man in this assassination plot, but the police got wind of it and were on the lookout for him, so he dumped his dynamite in an outhouse and went into hiding, and then when it all blew over, he was like, “Yeah...maybe I should just concentrate on my art.”  His wikipedia page is totally worth a read.)

poetry by Charles Simic (possibly A Wedding in Hell?)

poetry by Mark Strand (possibly Dark Harbour?)

Music used in Season 1 collected by @greedandenby here

*if collected or in translation most of the best editions today would not have been available to the characters pre-1940. It’s possible Louis is meant to have read them in their original French in some cases, but it would provide for a different experience. Lydia Davis’ Madame Bovary, for example, attempts to replicate this.

** I've tagged and linked relevant excerpts under quote series as I've been working my way through the list.

THE MOON IS HELL by John W. Campbell (Reading, PA: Fantasy Press, 1951) Cover by Hannes Bok.

The Moon Is Hell! is a collection of two stories, one science fiction, the other sword and sorcery. It was published in an edition of 4,206 copies

The title story, original to this collection, deals with a team of scientists stranded on the Moon when their spacecraft crashes, and how they use their combined skills and knowledge to survive until rescue, including building shelter from meteor showers, and creating their own oxygen from Lunar rock. The second story, "The Elder Gods" [from a story by Arthur J. Burke] originally appeared in the October 1939 issue of Unknown under the pseudonym Don A. Stuart.

Mayuri Shiiha from Steins;Gate, but THICC. Like my art of Kirisu I made her for a Reddit "Becky VS Stacy" meme, with Mayuri being the stacy. What can I say? She's absolutely adorable. And she's not stupid, she's VERY emotionally intelligent, just kind of airheaded and innocent. She also has massive boobs, the second biggest in the cast, but is modest about them which I like. She's already pretty cute, but in the right getup she could be ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. Doesn't help that by the end of the show she's the only major character without a love interest, so she's very available. Mayuri is my favorite character in the show. She's such an innocent ray of sunshine, making it even more tragic when the spoilers happen. Best girl, which is hard to do in a pseudo-harem anime/LN where the cast is 70% (and a half, because spoilers) female and most are pretty likable. (minus Moeka fuck Moeka)
