Have any of you guys actually read it? If so, is it worth the effort? How difficult is it as compared to Ulysses?

Ten times harder. You won't get anything from reading it
couldn't get past 30 pages

You can start this thread without explaining the rules. If it just said ">perhaps" with that image we would know exactly what you meant

No. Almost everyone in these threads is a hack.
I want to start reading more 'literary' books. What is a good way to ease myself into it?
Start with the Greeks
Start with the classics

Start with Ulysses and devolve back to the greeks
Guise, could you help a brother? that's the story: My girlfriend and I live in different states, so it´s kinda hard to see her. But next week i am travelling to see her, but she doesn't know, and i wanted to surprise her with a poem (original, if possible), but i'm lacking creativity these days (i used to write some poems to my ex, but that's years ago)... So... Could you guys help?
>>7844037
Just write her something dumb bitch
>>7844037
Are you autistic?
What's the point of surprising your "girlfriend" with a poem if you don't even have the heart to write one?
Too long have we been held apart
by mere geography,
and o, how I do miss the times
when you would finger me.
But now I'm here,
surprise, take cheer,
to feel your fingers in my rear,
once more to sit upon your fist
(which, as of old, I'll gently kiss) -
and as I spooge, if right I wist,
to shed a single tear.
So join me now in revelry:
Stick two, nay three inside of me,
remember where my prostate be,
and pass this night unpeered.
>Thick Europa Lips, now braiding a gooey chain of spit around his dick, vacant eyes not wasting energy, head bent over one of the metal tentacles of the locomotive, throbbing waves of kilometers left behind, and she was on the sunny thoughtless shore, sending a message in a bottle, begging for him to thrust harder.
I picked a scab off my scalp while I read this, and the scab is sexier.
I jacked off while reading this, and the semen is sexier.

Hey, /lit/. /sci/ here.
Can you give me one, one example of a philosophical problem that was actually solved?
Thanks, I know I can count on you.

>philosophy problem

>philosophy is a zero sum game
Philosophical "problems" are not solved, only debated. You're welcome.

So you concede that there is no point to it? If you can't find conclusive answers to the qustions raised then it is completely useless.
Guys, rate the first sentence of my new (approximately 600 page) novel. I release one chapter at a time and get paid by the character.

Is your narrator supposed to be a pompous try hard pseud?
rather lovecraftian
>>7843732
It's fedoric
Where can I read controversial, banned or otherwise red-pilled books? Any books written by "dictators" like Gaddaffi's Green Book?
You can literally find Green book with google, you edgy moron
>>7843594
Hogg by Delaney seems right up your alley.
Unfortunately even the most obscene books, like the last couple of chapters of 120 Days of Sodom or Las Bas or whatever are easily available on Gutenberg, and shit like "A Little Life" with the same subject matter was up for the Man Booker this year. As far as esoteric rants against Jews, those are easily found on stormfront.
If you want "super sekrit" anti govt tracts, just use btdigg and type in mind control or 4th reich or something:

Any Japanese literature/philosophy that advocates or supports a lifestyle of libertinism and sadomasochism? I need to give my evil Japanese character some stuff to read.

Just about to read The Dead and then I've finished with Dubliners. Where to next with Joyce?
Also, general Joyce thread since there are a few specific ones right now.
Chronological you dip
>>7843172don't you mean "The Dub-Liners"?
Portrait, then Ulysses.
Joyce only wrote a handful of things. You're worse than the guy on /mu/ asking where to start with the Pixies. What sort of discussion do you think can possibly blossom from this sort of thread? Please delete it.
