If you want the same kind of coordinating construction, like old-new, it would be

aage?

>>9300048
PS.

Not 'acting your age' would be something like

> diselikia

Depending on how you want to Anglicise the Greek ending; it could be 'diseliky'.

Confirmed Tuga

not really familiar with his works, I just know he's a chauvinistic toady douche

>>9299504
Yeah, lots of it. Germinal is top tier Zola, however. Some other strong ones are La Terre, Nana, The Debacle -and- one I rather liked but not as good as the others mentioned- The Human Beast. Generally, if you want something fun to read, Zola, like Tolstoy, almost never lets you down.

>>9299504
Thérèse Raquin and La Bête Humaine are both good

>>9299504
Im reading La Debacle soon, Germinal was a truly great book though. I hope it becomes meme tier here.

Just find a nice waifu and settle down. Then you won't have to worry about disgusting 3D whores.

It's funny how you can tell that she either doesn't understand what she's reading or she's not reading at all (posing). Fuck women

or you could do what /lit/ says and read Lacan's seminar on the female orgasm

its literally the only useful thing lacan ever wrote

>And Josef read the sign that warmly greeted him, "Welkome to Amerika!"

Kafka? More like HACK-fka

>He found himself, more often than he'd used to, contemplating the trial
You people say this is good?

>At last, the men had been caught and executed for murdering four family members In Cold Blood.

No Pulitzer for you

You could try publishing this post desu

I used to delete shit on purpose.

Then I repressed that sad urge and instead began learning from my mistakes.

Then I used cloud storage and version control.

Then I learned both the art of prose from the greats as well as the secret of marketability from the prolifics.

Then I learned how to edit and focus.

Then I learned how to outline and plan.

I'm not sure I learned all these things in the right order, but I'm glad I learned them.

It took me longer than I thought it would, but at least I tried.

>tfw too smart for poetry

Poetry is
much more satisfying
than prose.

If you disagree
you're an
autistic

Anyone read this?

He doesn't like gays. It's reciprocal.

>A member of the human race who is completely incapable of understanding the higher productivity of labor performed under a division of labor based on private property is not properly speaking a person… but falls instead into the same moral category as an animal – of either the harmless sort (to be domesticated and employed as a producer or consumer good, or to be enjoyed as a “free good”) or the wild and dangerous one (to be fought as a pest).
What did he mean by this?

Lot49 -> GR

>>9298970

thanks man

>>9298940
I wouldn't really recommend saving GR for last, but if you're going to do it anyway, start with V, Crying, and Mason and Dixon. Everything else is completely dispensible.
