Quick test thread to see how long it takes for /lit/'s version of barneyfag to appear posting the same copypasta review followed up by the obvious bait pic that people still fall for. Until he shows up (and that's a maybe) we can all scream about how Harry Potter is awful without going as far as to actually point out what is awful with the book because that would require some form of effort.
You know, even as a kid I was upset that Malfoy was portrayed as irredeemably evil. I kept expecting a moment where he would turn out to not be all that bad, but no, he was just a shitter to the end and everyone loved Harry for no reason. It also pissed me off that Harry never had to work for anything even though he should have had a major disadvantage being muggle-raised.

I'm surprised they never brought up how fucking blatant the favorism was for everyone, or why J.K Rowling couldn't care enough to come up with a decent money system. Some other things that bothered me was the broom instructor in year 1 watching Neville fuck off into the sky, the gnomes possibly being sentient and nobody batting an eye, the fact they froze a gnome and used it as a christmas ornament, the fact that nobody ever bothered making a map before four bored pranksters did, and a bunch of other shit.
How does one make good right-leaning litterature ?

This thread was fun the last time. You take 5 outta your stack, anons tell you which one to go for next. I'm new to reading so I'm going over the basics
- Brave new world by Aldous Huxley
- Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut
- My Man Jeeves by PG Wodehouse
- Steppenwolf by Hermann Hesse
- Simon and the Oaks by Marianne Fredriksson
Slaughterhouse 5. Easy choice. Vonnegut is such a common thread in pretty much every reader of good books person I've met. He comes up in conversation often enough it is worth it to read his, possibly, best or at least most talked about book. Do it.

I am a Cat by Natsume Soseki

Frost by Thomas Bernhard

Had a successful thread like this the other day:
>Where are you studying/what are you studying?
>Do you enjoy it?
>What are you currently reading?
I honestly can't tell you how much better my life has been since I entered pinkycord
These threads is just an outlet for students of 'prestigious' universities to inflate their own ego and delude themselves that their alma mater actually matters in life.

Been editing a 2 page poem for like 3 months now. Long, 5-6 hour sessions sometimes. Let me die.

Have you stepped away from it at all? Unless you're reworking structure that sounds like a very long session
>>9947060
most of it is fiddling with linebreaks and grammatical construction to allow better linebreaks.

Anyone up for a poetry thread?
I've been lately mesmerized by a poetry sample used in this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDOMn0aTEzA
It's just so open, so sincere. It takes me back to the times where I desperatedly wanted to love and be loved by a certain someone.
I want to find the speaker or the author but so far it's impossible.
Can anyone help?
Also, share your favourite pieces of poetry.
I am not a regular on this board but I didn't see a stupid questions thread
What can I read to help me understand what exactly is meant by "modernism", "post-modernism", and whatever comes after post- modernism? Thanks
>>9946587
Wikipedia first.
Are you especially interested in literary modernism and post modernism, or in the cultural phenomena more generally?
>>9946587
You didn't see one stupid questions thread? I saw nothing but.
Do you need to read philosophy to make good literature? How much philosophy did the great authors read?
literature is etter than philosophy
>>9946548
yes, I know, but do you need a little bit of philosophy to make good lit?
>>9946561
Joyce read a good deal, he makes plentiful references to everything from Plato to Catholic Theology to Nietzsche.
Any great writer worth salt will have a good running knowledge of the philosophical canon, whether its necessary or not is debatable but you'd be hard pressed to find a major figure who didn't have a strong interest in the products of structured thought
Daily reminder that if he went into physics he'd surpass Einstein, in business he'd surpass Rockefeller, martial arts he'd surpass Bruce Lee. This man was the single smartest and most talented person who ever lived.

Try the redpill, kiddo. You feel for a meme created by Jewish-run bolshevik feminist globalist academia.
I suggest you read Kevin McDonald's Culture of Critique Series to understand where you've been brainwashed
