>americans whine for over 20 years about not getting a nobel prize in literature
>the committee awards it to bob dylan as a joke
whats some other great literature related banter?
Nobody cares at this point, man.
It shows his true colors.
>Writer and commentator Will Self wrote that the award "cheapened" Dylan whilst hoping the laureate would "follow Sartre in rejecting the award".[74]
I wonder what people who spent hours listening to his records, paid big money to experience him live, and jumped up in the air of pure joy when they heard he won, thinks of his reaction to their appreciation

>Sartre has also been noted for his open relationship with the prominent feminist theorist Simone de Beauvoir. Together, Sartre and de Beauvoir challenged the cultural and social assumptions and expectations of their upbringings, which they considered bourgeois, in both lifestyle and thought.

>open relationship
"Sartre"? More like "Cucktre," am I right?
>>8643565
Do you think Sartre ever prepped the bull?
>>8643614
Quite the opposite - de Beauvoir passed her young female lovers on to Sartre frequently. I think I'd endure the so-called horror of being cuckolded if I got a constant supply of young and beautiful French pussy.
