In the German speaking world, Musil is just as big an author as Kafka. How come the one is so famous, but the other is unheard of? Have any of you anglo trash ever read Musil?

Because Americans are brainlets unable to withstand the genius of Musil
>>8779868
Germans do the same shit with Poe.
>>8779868
Because people tend not to care about an unfinished novel that's already 3000 pages long, no matter how many critics suck its cock.

>Kafka is German
Don't you mean Czech? I'm sorry but do you even see a Kafka museum in Germany? Point to me where there is one.

The French do the same shit with Poe. Valery, Gide, and Mallarme all jerked off to his poetry.

Please learn how to read. German speaking world is not coterminous with the modern nation state of Germany. Many authors who lived outside the borders of modern Germany were still writing in German.

It's literally not bullshit. Maybe famous in the sense of just broad appeal and popularity, but go take a peak at what people are still writing about in Germanistik programs.
