Just finished "miss wyoming", disappointed as fuck. By some art fag with a degree in conceptual art, its boring af.
Compared to books dealing with same themes; Broom of the system, COL49, Point Omega, it is straight up YA tier: flash backs that actually explain the story, a climax and a happy end. I'm just disgusted, I couldn't enjoy it, all the way thinkin " this is pleb shit."
tl;dr; Has PoMo ruined me and my taste? Is Coupland shit or am I a jaded elitist?
started on Bolano's short stories: this I can enjoy.
pic related,its Susan Colegate
bump I assume Coupland is pleb tier?
What's PoMo? How was The Broom of the System? As far as I know, you're the only person who has ever read it.

I'm not OPie but I'm about 100 pages into it now. It's bretty fun so far but DFW was clearly an undergrad having a wank when he wrote it.

Why was the dude so eager to publish his senior thesis considering he didn't even make a career out of being a novelist? Like why not just wait until you have some more writing experience and fine tune the shit that you rushed out so that you could get your bachelor's degree? I don't understand.

The idea of being a published author, especially at an age when most people haven't gotten jack shit done yet, probably sounded cool to him at the time.

IIRC, he got a six figure advance for it. I would have published it too, desu.
