I really want to learn Lisp but I can't find any good tutorials.
Can anyone help?

Sadly, there is nothing we can do for you.

``I think that it's extraordinarily important that we in computer science keep fun in computing. When it started out, it was an awful lot of fun. Of course, the paying customers got shafted every now and then, and after a while we began to take their complaints seriously. We began to feel as if we really were responsible for the successful, error-free perfect use of these machines. I don't think we are. I think we're responsible for stretching them, setting them off in new directions, and keeping fun in the house. I hope the field of computer science never loses its sense of fun. Above all, I hope we don't become missionaries. Don't feel as if you're Bible salesmen. The world has too many of those already. What you know about computing other people will learn. Don't feel as if the key to successful computing is only in your hands. What's in your hands, I think and hope, is intelligence: the ability to see the machine as more than when you were first led up to it, that you can make it more.''

We are about to study the idea of a computational process. Computational processes are abstract beings that inhabit computers. As they evolve, processes manipulate other abstract things called data. The evolution of a process is directed by a pattern of rules called a program. People create programs to direct processes. In effect, we conjure the spirits of the computer with our spells.
Lisp in Small Pieces. A bestseller in Canada for some reason.
Also check college professors' websites since they still favor Lisp for expert systems and artificial intelligence.
I did it the hard way: Guy L. Steele. "Common Lisp the Language"

learn tutorials
You fail at learning. Would you skip all the lectures of your class but only attend the tutorials?

Oh my god. They are actual retards. Like, the bad guys in the horror movies with zombies? Those that are killed easily, and act like complete retards. Yeah, those.
