Tell him you prefer the lesser works of Frenchmen.

I've slowly grown to realise this myself, English language authors outside of poetry and non-fiction tend to be tedious

read the meme trilogy you twit

Why would anyone posting on /lit/ pay someone for that?

No I'd rather take the time to make my own selections.

Beowulf? The Iliad, Paradise Lost, the Odyssey? Most of them even are originally written in their own conlang.

Poor birb doesn't know about the Voyage of St Brendan or King Arthur myths or King Dag or Sigurd or Odin's memory and thought or even Aristophanes, all of which are fantasies about how birbs are very important, even political.

You should go to Conference of Birbs, and maybe Parliament of Fowles.

Mythologies are different the fantasies, but I do enjoy both.

Beowulf is one of the few.

Fantasy lyrical poetry seems to be the rarest.

>only optimists commit suicide, optimists who no longer succeed at being optimists. The others, having no reason to live, why would they have any reason to die.

>What do you do from morning to night? I endure myself.

Straddles that line between sincerity and edgelord.

He seems pretty cool, I bet he would've liked rick and morty

Kill yourself.

It's no more Marxist than it is anarchist or whatever. Replying because you have an interesting post number.

Sea of Glory by Nathaniel Philbrick is an enjoyable non-fiction book.
It is written with a certain amount of bravado which allows it to read as a work of fiction, but it is infact not.

Also would Evola like reviewbrah? what about stirner would he like him?

evola would feel pity for stirner and go climb a mountain, stirner would go back to being a footnote in some nietzsche cliffnotes

Friedman isn't right wing - he's a filthy neoliberal. The right cares about tradition, the preservation of culture. Cuckitalists like Friedman prescribe policies that destroy culture.

>The enchanting work of Sydney author Lang Leav swings between the whimsical and woeful, expressing a complexity beneath its childlike facade. Her imagination stretches across a variety of disciplines encompassing art, poetry, and books. Lang is a recipient of The Qantas Spirit of Youth Award and was granted a prestigious Churchill Fellowship.

They're not supposed to be high quality. Penguin haters miss the point. They're for marking up for assignments.

Tryhards, edgefags and hipsters. Literally just that.

Same with Wordsworth.

Have you ever read the Silmarillion? Satan is Melkor. He wants to be God.

I only read his Petersburger novels(the overcoat; the nose), for which, I think, he is the most famous for. Also, in which way is Dead Souls Kafka-like? I wanted to start reading it soon-ish and am also very fond of Kafka.
