Well, he may be underrated on this board, but that doesn't mean too much...
I really like him. Though, I noticed that each time he is evoked, people are quite short of words to tell how he affects them (and I would have trouble telling how he affects me as well)
>>7677373
Never heard of him. What's he known for?
My man.
>>7677481
A lot, but I believe the most famous is The Unbearable Lightness of Being
He is well known for sure but he doesn't get talked about as much as I thought he would here.

You know how translations are received here.

wasent he a fag, or was that just a joke?
>>7677625
This man, for sure. I have yet to read anything of his I haven't loved.
Also, Mavis Gallant.
Not just underrated but sadly the most unknown author I know of.
>>7677373
The Joke is fucking great. Had to read it for a history class, went in skeptical and came out a believer.
Also, John von Dorf for underrated. He's the most obscure writer I love.
>>7677648
No and no.

my nigga Maugham, I've been reading his short stories on and off, volumes 1&2 and considering getting into his novels. Is Of Human Bondage worth reading?
kundera is middlebrow garbage. murakami tier. appeals to plebs/pseudointellectuals
>>7677786
Is Gil Orlovitz gonna be the new meme?
>>7678927
Agree with Murakami, but Kundera is clearly not for plebs
>>7678964
No, hopefully not. But if there is one place where he could find his niche, finally, after time tried its hardest to drown him, make his name known to more than a handful of isolated nobodys, it's here, in this elitist, meme-addled hellhole that we all hate.
>>7678927
Nice opinion.
>>7679151
Let him be pal, this board is 70% shit-posting anyway.
Could you try to tell why you like/dislike Kundera instead?
>>7677373
True. I discovered him through a song that was based off of one of his short stories.
Let's face it, without her, we wouldnt know who to gas first

writer of twilight, Stephanie Meyer
she's pretty hot yeah but looks don't make a good writer
>>7680305
Hitler?
Genre fiction is inherently goofy, and most times bad, I get that.
But this guy will blow your fucking mind with his sociological ideas.
Way ahead of his time, and I truly believe he was in contact with foreign entities, be that in a psychedelic trance or going insane.

Anita Sarkeesian.
