the concept of 'the human' stopped being relevant around 50 years ago. since then, all consciousness has only ever been oscillating between two states: 'horny' and 'searching for the relevant jpeg'.

I want to write beautifully. What books should one read to improve the quality of his prose?
16 posts and 1 images submitted.

stuff written in the 19th century. just read it all. also, subvocalize constantly, ensure you hear the voice of the author. do that forever, isolating yourself from other stimuli, then put pen to paper and release the torrent. you may be surprised. unfortunately it may be short lived, however, if you were to devote years to this habit, perhaps you could maintain it.

>>8962879
Some classic poetry would be a good start, obviously. Read the Odyssey translated by Robert Fagles

no one will ever want to read your stuff except for other lonely and uncritical /lit/izens, but best of luck to you. why not produce some 18th century style water colours while your at it, or a couple of mesopotamian lyre songs, they will surely be relevant to 21st century aesthetic consciousness.

How will literature and art in general continue to be relevant in the world we are heading to with virtual reality?

'being relevant' is antithetical to being literature, read blanchot's the space of literature

When we are also heading to idiocracy, the more irrelevant reading becomes, the more important it becomes that you partake.

I got like 2/3rds through it, stopped due to impatience.

It's super easy to read, like a bunch of tweets. Not much happens however, far as I can tell. Cool book though.

I WAS Wittgenstein's mistress, and if you're referring to his dick, it was, indeed, as good as people (your mom) say.
