aThousandCateaus (bookwyrm) wants to read Key Writings by Henri Bergson (Bloomsbury Revelations)
Deleuze takes his concept of Multiplicity from Bergson. This seems like a good work to read (either that or Deleuze's book on Bergson).

@athousandcateaus@bookwyrm.social I liked Deleuze’s book on Bergson, even if I didn’t understand most of it the first time around.
It introduced me to the virtual and the actual, which I hadn’t known anything about before.
But my absolute favorite thing that Deleuze picks from Bergson is Memory. (I picked up “Memory and matter” after that, and it’s surprisingly not that difficult to follow.)
Memory is, I guess, one of the reasons I like Deleuze’s book on Proust so much. (The “homosexual series” you can find in AO, is mentioned there already.) I really recommend it!

@dato@libros.rizoma1.ar I've actually transcribed it and have the intention of reading it at some point. Proust and Signs is also on my radar but I wanna read Proust first. I know you don't hafta, but I wanna.
Thanks for the comment. Nice to know I'm not like Deleuze-ing alone.
