It's k. Mostly dumb crime stuff

I picked up the NYRB Classics edition of Bengtsson's "The Long Ships". Seems promising so far, but I'm only like 30 pages in.

Beg you pardon?

Ibsen's a massive, untalented cuck.

I remember reading Mika Waltari's historical novels as a kid, they were k

J.P Jacobsen's Niels Lyhne is in my backlog but I have it in german and it's beyond my current level

Strindberg's biggest crime was being so ahead of his time that he isn't even appreciated in retrospect. His plays are often much better than Ibsen, but are good far less consistently.
I'll forgive you for being so very wrong based on the assumption that you only ever read "Miss Julie"

I'm calling S T R I N D B E R G ahead of his time, moron, not Ibsen.

>>7654816
You replied with a cheeky mfw when I called Ibsen a cuck, so I assumed you were disagreeing with me.

>>7654830
oh, my mistake.
it's just ironic that you should call Ibsen a cuck when roughly half of strindberg's plays were explicitly about cuckery

GOAT Swedish Novella coming through

>>7654838
Well, that's obviously a cock and balls

>>7654837
Oh really? That's interesting, I've never read Strindberg.

I don't really feel the desire to, now.

>>7654849
So are Sweden, Norway and Finland, so it's all connected.

>>7654851
Note that "half of strindberg's plays" still only means about 30 out of 60 plays.
You ought to read "the father", which is an extremely well written naturalist play about cucks, "the dance of death" which is about an old couple who are both psychopaths, and "ghost sonata", which is about people psychologically torturing and eventually murdering each other. "a dream play" is also good; it's the main play from his abstract modernist period. "miss julie" is overrated

Can someone label those countries? All I know is the main Nordic ones... Sweden Norway Finland Iceland Denmark
