I love books recommended on here but unless I specify you mfs will recommend theory. You all read anything captivating without overt political themes?

What's your favorite Vollmann to start with? I couldn't get into You Bright and Risen Angels and am suspicious of Europe Central but I've been meaning to try something from the Seven Dreams series.

Okay of the ones I've read

I remember really liking Whores for Gloria

The Rifles is great and is Volume 6 of the Seven Dreams Series

I just started Imperial, which has been sitting on my shelf for years. It's good so far, but is a MASSIVE tome

I've been wanting to snag a copy of You Bright and Risen Angels
