No one gets that obsessed about the idea of getting penetrated by a bull without something fishy in his mind

Just bought this because you faggots said it's a good introduction to his work.

Did I get memed?

>>8084216
Why don't you read it and figure it out for yourself? I enjoy it.

>>8084216
No it's really gud

>>8083757
he seems about to grow a corporation

>>8084216
Enjoy it, I'm rereading it now and it's great. Pay a lot of attention to the character interactions.

Yes, you did get memed.

>ywn be Robert Jordan
>ywn go to Spain and fight for communism with a qt by your side

I could go to Rojava I guess but I'm chubby and have no combat experience.

>>8084307
i guess isis still can employ you as a gay whore, i heard their high command had those

>>8084307
Easy solution nigga, lose weight by fighting, gain experience by fighting. Shits just excuses for being a pussy

>>8084321
There's also the factor of wanting to avoid a hilariously awful death at the hands of ISIS on the basis of them wanting to make another wacky video

>>8084216
That's one of his weaker books, For Whom the Bell Tolls and The Old Man and the Sea are far more engaging reads

>>8084321
They don't let people without experience go over anymore. They're bordering on a massive famine and it would just waste food.

>>8084216
Best Hemingway is short story Hemingway, but Sun Also Rises is generally considered his best novel. It's much better, and less self-indulgent, than his later works.

>That's one of his weaker books, For Whom the Bell Tolls and The Old Man and the Sea are far more engaging reads

Horseshit

>>8084216
That really is a lovely publication.

Favorite author is Dostoyevsky but I really like what Cervantes did in Quixote. I have some weird feeling drawing me to Old man and the sea and even weirder it was the only Hemingway at my local bookstore when I went. Am I memeing myself?

>but Sun Also Rises is generally considered his best novel

that's if you like cuckoldry

>>8084385
True shit my man, how anyone could prefer reading about Brett slutting it up over the aforementioned books or even A Farewell to Arms I will never know.

>>8084417
or if ur a white male slowly-growing-up manchild.

Hemingway was the DFW of his generation (and of actual literature)

Can anyone help me see the appeal in Hemingway? I've read The Sun Also Rises (twice), A Farewell To Arms, and Old Man and The Sea and I still don't enjoy his works. His prose is great but that's all for me.

>>8086538
Hemingway appeals to a certain niche of people, perhaps more so than other authors. If things like warfare, drinking, travelling, and hunting appeal to you, you're more inclined to enjoy the things that he's saying.

>>8084216
Don't ask Sarah whatever you do.

>>8084216
Yes, he's the biggest hack in history (my next People on Things will be about him, Ernie Hemingway on an Electric Chair), so you absolutely got memed straight the fuck out.

>>8084456
DFW's writing is a lot more interesting than memmmmmmmmmmmmeingway's, even if they are comparable in a lot of ways.

>>8086538
Try his short stories.
