nothing is important

>>9427138
It's important for one reason: to improve one's reading comprehension so as to better understand the bible.

>>9427138
Important to whom? Me? Because I derive enjoyment from it

>it seems wacky and experimental enough, right, or i am missing something?

wacky and experimental =/= peaux-meaux

This is what happens when your educational system is shit and people learn about literature on /lit/.

>wacky and experimental enough
:'(

You shouldn't read them in that order. Read some dialogues before reading the Republic. Also you should have some understanding of Greek mythology, as well as the Illiad and the Odyssey.

It'll only work if you have the motivation and confidence to carry out the suggestions in the book. So if you're a shy autist, it probably won't help you at all. You need to have some sort of gung ho first.

they're good to gain perspective and have "paradigm shifts". I've been on a bent to read as many self-help books as possible and I recommend the following:
>No Excuse by Brian Tracy
>How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie
>The Power of Habits by Charles Duhigg

I can recommend some other books but they might be less well-written as the book above

>>9427010
Go ahead and recommend them. I gotta improve in any way possible.

He was dead on with regards to the Holocaust.

>>9426958
To be redpilled is tantamount to renouncing thought altogether.

Everyone in the french military was a professional, well armored knight, except for the irishman, The irishman never wore the standard armor, the irashman never tried and never succeed. This he passed down from generation to generation. There is a reason why the potata famine happened, you know?

For sale: irish auxiliary shoes, never worn.

The irishman was so tall that manlet frenchmen feared to give him any power.

Yes go read the books he copied his plots from.

Young adult fiction would be a good place to start as well.

Boring artificial dialogue and high-school musical aesthetics? John Green.

Is this an experimental pomo post?

>>9426979
I unironically feel anxiety about how flimsy post-modern philosophy is in comparison to analytical philosophy.

how would "low romanticism" deal with the problem that man is not "born free" but rather "born into chains and is everywhere in chains"? camus would say that it's a the summit of the hill, that brief observation when the rock rolls back down that man can express one sense of freedom. which is the source of pomo irony, an incredibly effective coping mechanism for existential dread. I'm not sure romanticism, high or low, has anything to offer with this problem.

Camus is full of shit and only high schoolers take him seriously

As a literary movement, writers should instead romanticize ironically and negatively, the postmodern character. A hedonist who rejects modernist ideals and suffers internally. Let's start with the American hip hop artist

The desire to appear edgy/intellectual in young pseuds knows no bounds.

his interviews are hilarious. He's a weak minded and abhorrent human but also a comedian.

>>9426679
he's just a really standard young angry white guy author don't think about it too much

Just by a neon-purple dragon dildo and put it on a shelf. People will recognize you for a man of refined tastes just as well.

/lit/ refuses to acknowledge contemporary literature so this new wave of female writers doesn't stand much chance of currying favour with us autists. Beyond these four walls many, many female novelists are celebrated as writers of serious literature.
