>>8483473
>>8483482
I just now checked it out from my college's library, didn't actually buy it for 15

Most major colleges have one copy at the very least

Got the Dalkey paperback for 20

>>8483465

>>8483620
Literally never.

>>8483465
You'll be memed if you don't enjoy it, even if it's "good" by someone's standarts

>2016
>not reading the most intense work in the history of literature, Bottom's Dream.
>Women and Men
>babbys first serious literature
>McElroy
>poor man's Arno Schmidt

You got memed. It's too hard a read for themes trite in literature. It's yet another gimmick.

That's amazing. /lit/ is truly a force to be reckoned with.

>>8483831
YES

The book is an unbearable slog. Borderline unreadable.

/lit/ is a force to be reckoned with

>>8483465
One of the worst books ever. Incoherent nonsense.

If you actually get through the whole thing it is a surefire sign you are a pleb tryhard with no critical judgment and that you view books as accomplishments

Hi, David

I once made it 237 pages into this book AMA

I got my copy for $6, didn't read it, and sold it for a 700% profit on ebay.

Honestly, some parts were great, but I struggled with his writing style. It's an incredibly difficult read.

>>8487433
wtf is that thing

It's the spine. The book is a literal behemoth.

I mean, it's no Bottoms Dream, but it's fucking massive nonetheless
