Depersonalization?

>>9992669
No I don't think that was it - if I'm remembering correctly it was specifically about the reduction of the body to a mechanical thing, and the word alluded to the psychologically destructive nature of that process. Though I think depersonalization is maybe entailed by that to some extent as well.

>>9992682
ok well I looked in my copy and couldn't find it - I remember it occurring in a passage where he's describing the result of the socialization of a black boy or something, but maybe I'm hallucinating the whole thing.

I wish he hadn't unabombed people. What was he even thinking? What was the point of it? Why not just be an intellectual and critique capitalism? Fucking god damnit Ted.

>>9992615
He's got free room and board now for the rest of his life.

...I wonder how many people are planing on killing Breivik once he gets out so they can have a long vacation in a Norwegian prison.

>implying they could find him
He'll move to some other EU country and live under a fake name.

/pol/ tier infograph

>>9992485
He is an objectively bad writer though. I don't think anyone on /lit/ would disagree. Even people who like him read his books for the plot and not for the literary merit.

Hemingway was raised as a girl during his early childhood

>>9992181
Hemingway fought in WW1. How can you even respect Joyce, he did nothing but copy a bunch of styles, mix things up, and call it modernism.

"What did you do in the Great War, Mr Joyce?"
"I wrote Ulysses. What did you do?"

还有很长的路要走.
和平自由民主

Create a spiritual elite of non-bourgeois seekers after philosophical, scientific, and metaphysical truth

Stabilize Europe by creating an alliance with the Slavic world and promoting the flowering of the Pan-Slavic Weltgeist

Attempt to resuscitate the Faustian Weltgeist, or to keep it alive long enough to use its twilight era as an incubation chamber for perennial truths that the Pan-Slav union can incorporate into their own civilization

Kidnap Nick Land and convince him to enter the Lazarus Corridor and occupy the Machine God while it still slumbers, so we have time to figure out how to stop it

John Green seems like such a harmless and inoffensive guy
If I were to ever meet him in person I wouldn't have the heart to tell him his writing sucks.

>>9992090
But he's a god of writing.

They sell egg sandwiches everywhere, I often eat an egg and cress sammich for lunch. This is what happens when you want to be pithy and insightful while being a retard with no real life experience.

Put your ego aside, the faults in your writing are not yours, but you have to make them right. Or better.

Easier said than done, but I think it's most important for getting better at writing.

The Paulo Coelho of postmodernism

/lit? doesn't talk about many authors.....

because sophie calle is meant to be our friend and muse and she never writes half our novel for us or puts flowers in our basement. we'll talk about him when he gives her back.

There are none.

Try Bukowski. Lots of liquor, little work, all the girls and still feeling like shite.

Too late, film did that.

>>9991523
Not internet, exactly, but search engines, and the fact that they can take queries in forms of statements rather than questions.

But Job is difficult to summarize without it being hilarious. It only really works in expanded form.
Not to say that reddit posts aren't cringey, or worthy of reports when used as the OP image to a thread, just that this is overblown.

what a massive fag

When I listen to this it seems he was always completely sincere in everything and not fucking around at all.

what a charismatic guy
