   Dear Greg Johnson,
   Thank you for doing another independent podcast. You did a good job of answering questions of current events in the U.S. I would like to say thank you for answering three of my five questions. I will repost those two questions with five news questions for you next podcast.

   Greg Johnson having given his list of favorite novels, I allow myself to give mine. I hope it will interest Counter-Currents’ readers and who knows, the contributors of the site?

   So here’s my top five:
   1)”North Face” (in french Face Nord):written in 1944 by the writer-adventurer and former Waffen SS Saint-Loup (pen name of Marc Augier)… in Leni Riefensthal’s cottage in the midst of the fascist camp debacle. The quintessence of the Nietzschean ideology of fascism through a novel of adventure (and love…) in the high mountains.
   It would have to be translated into English because it is a book next to which no White Nationalist can pass.

   2)”Alamut” by Slovenian writer Vladimir Bartol, published in 1938.
   Plot:Entrenchend in his citadel Alamut, the great Ismaili master Hassan Ibn Sabbâh wages, at the end of the 11th century, a holy war in Iran against the Sunni Turkish occupier. He has few soldiers and only his relatives know him intimately. Yet, starting from almost nothing, without an army and without land, he will bring down the Seljuk empire. For Hassan has a secret: philosopher, he studied all religions and knows that they all rest on the same spring: illusion. From then on, he embarked on a crazy project: to recreate Paradise on earth in secret gardens where beautiful young women live, to make it seem that he holds the keys to Heaven and who he can send there, in thanks for the services rendered, his best fedayins. Subjugated, these young soldiers of God will be ready to die in battle to join these wonderful places that welcome them like kings…

   3) “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand.

   4)”Flowers for Algernoon”(1958) by Daniel Keyes
   Plot:Algernon is a mouse whose treatment of Professor Nemur and Dr. Strauss has just increased the intelligence tenfold. Emboldened by this success, the scientists, with the help of psychologist Alice Kinnian, try to apply their discovery to Charlie Gordon, a simple-minded man. It is soon the extraordinary awakening of intelligence for the young man. He discovers a world from which he had always been excluded, and the love that develops between Alice and him completes to transform it. But one day, Algernon’s higher faculties begin to decline…

   5)”1984″ by Georges Orwell.

   If I could save only one of the following: the great body of routine westerns or the top 10 or so western films, I would save the former.
