Tess of the D'Urbervilles

King Lear

I've never been saddened by fiction.

My diary desu.

I considered starting this tonight, but instead I took another crack at A Night of Serious Drinking . Dropped it the first time b/c I got busy.

>>8373059

I love his short stories - Nurse Cora is one of my all time faves - but Hopscotch is just a gimmick.

>>8373007

Joyce is nothing but a meme on /lit/
Euthanize this thread before it vanishes into oblivion

>>8373046
that's Fernando Pessoa, not James Joyce

orgy

This seems like a recipe for dissapointment.
Why would anyone want to meet half the douchebags that shitpost on here anyway

>>8372903
For real. I met up with people from /out/ once, probably one of the worst weekends of my life.

Samuel Johnson. He was a smart guy and wrote some shit. He's probably dead now. The chances of him being deceased are quite high.

>>8372680
Also the reason he is meme status is because that image is highly exploitable. The look of disgust on his face leads posters to use it to show disdain for a poster. Perhaps because of their "Pleb" sensibilities and taste. It's as if he's thinking, "The fuck you say?!?"

>>8372680
That's Harold Bloom in his younger years.

Just the same as yesterday or last week or any other day we have this thread. Las Vegas is fun, Campaign Trail 72 is his best work, Hells Angels underrated and Rum Diaries shit. He did a lot of drugs but that's ok. One anon will call him a hack, one will say that Leary was better. But everyone here kinda likes him. There's your thread about the good docror.

>>8372537
This anon gets it.

I usually just talk about Kierkegaard and the connection between Fear and Loathing/Fear and Trembling, or post dreaming, lisergic paragraphs full of run on sentences praising him.

>>8372537
Cool. This is my first time posting on here and just wondered

>>8372486
Fragments of Democritus' Ethics.

el tunel
the divided self

>his only one tackling a fully non-fictional conspiracy
Whichever way one looks at this, you're way off the mark

>>8372445
Well, I don't see Vheissu, Trystero, Rocket-State, or Golden Fang Truthers as much as 9/11 ones.

>>8372452
GR has more actual conspiracies in it than a sow's litter, piglets

>/lit/ is a nigger

Accurate to a certain extent.

Why is /lit/ black

Why does this picture assume that everyone on /lit/ reads

I can't read

The most dangerous person doesn't think for themselves and only read books to form opinions.

They help me pass the time. That's pretty much it.

Only book that has had that much of an impact on my crucial life decisions is Lolita

The Recognitions influenced me to think of people who do the kind of shit you're describing as sickening pseudo-intellectual poseurs.

Bibliotik if you can get a fucking invite.
btw does anyone have an invite to Bibliotik? I have Overdrive access.

>>8371192
your thread's a meme.

Yes.

I enjoyed it. The narrator is one of the most unreliable I've ever read, but that's the point.
