If you read the first two chapters and thought it was dry you should just drop the entire genre of classic literature because that shit was morose as fuck

Oh, I guess liked the beginning better. Now I'm up to where he goes to school, and there's a chapter about how there's a new headmaster and all the professors don't like him.

I was thinking more along the lines of buddhist meditation

For real, just use the internet. Most books on meditation are intensely mediocre.

There's way more stuff out there on websites and forums.

I've read it

It was pretty good. You don't have to buy the ideology just because you read manifestos.

Without memeing, it was actually pretty interesting. Backs up a lot of thoughts I've had myself, though my thoughts were mainly directed at the frame of capitalism and not technology as a whole, and also less focused on the psychological aspects.
I'm still not a primitivist revolutionary, but it was well worth the (short) read.

John Green

there are only 5 new sincerity authors

2 have been mentioned and the other three are Tao lin, James Franco and shia lepoof

i think that says all you need to know about this """""ideological movement""""""""""

>>9199364
Awful.

Just go back to Pynchon and DeLillo. New Sincerity is dumb.

Praise Aqua-sama!

Hes pretty good. Bit full of himself. Umbrella is his most noteworthy, Book of Dave is funny and some short stories are good.

Quantity Theory of Insanity was filled with interesting concepts but imo they weren't really properly expanded upon. Haven't read anything else.

I find his work a bit solipsistic
