Podcast: The Daily Stoic
Episode: Chuck Klosterman on Writing, Being Wrong, and The Nineties
Here’s a list of all the books mentioned in this episode, complete with an Amazon buy link and quotes from the episode.
The Nineties
Buy on Amazon"In my book about 'The 90s,' I wrote about Nirvana and grunge, and I included a footnote regarding how it may seem like I'm juxtaposing a white guy from the eroded world of rock with a hip-hop artist from the rising world of rap."
Chronicles
Buy on Amazon"Reading Bob Dylan's memoir gave an intriguing perspective; he believed long songs with many verses are valuable for practicing memorization without context."
But What If We're Wrong?
Buy on Amazon"I had a book come out in 2016 called 'But What If We're Wrong?'. So I was doing an audiobook for it, and I thought, 'I don't like the sound of my own voice.'"
The Contrarian
Buy on Amazon"I think it truly is a no-win proposition; I wrote a book about Peter Thiel and his lawsuit against Gawker that scrutinized media."

Black Boy [Seventy-fifth Anniversary Edition]
Buy on Amazon"I can remember specific scenes from Richard Wright's Black Boy in a vivid way."
Crossroads
Buy on Amazon"I'm reading Jonathan Franzen's Crossroads right now, and it's great, but I've already forgotten parts at the beginning of the book."
Animal Farm
Buy on Amazon"My favorite book of all time is probably Animal Farm, and it’s funny to think that the first time I read that, I must have read it only as text."
