>"he invented"
how about you cut back on coffee for a while, young illuminatus
>masterful use of the poetry and rhetoric of the English language
>able to create many characters all with their own unique and convincing voice and personality
>innovative focus on characters' psychologies and internal emotional states
>explores many of life's themes with the depth and intelligence of the best philosophers
He's literally the GOAT English writer of all time.
>>he invented the jar jar binks style comedy relief
I don't think anyone says he invented comedic relief.
answers lie in anagrams
>he reads Shakespeare
What's next, do you smell van Gogh's paintings?

I am sick and tired of this. Every day I come to /lit/, and every day there is at least one thread up with an OP image of an attractive old man dressed sharply and posing seductively. It's probably the same one or two people who do it honestly. Let me tell you something, you faggot pieces of shit who are doing this: you are the poster child for everything that is wrong in literature, art, and society as a whole today. You are incapable of coming up with anything creative, thought provoking, or of substance, and you lack even the smallest modicum of intelligence, so you use "style" and "class" and "respectability" in place of it and to draw attention to yourself, because that's the only way your SHIT "creation" and ideas would ever get seen by anyone. And before you say anything, this has NOTHING to do with the fact that I am an hormone addled teenager. Anyway, I will be petitioning the owner of this website to ban your asses, so enjoy being able to post here while it lasts, because it's not going to last long, just like you that one time you convinced your Old English teacher to let you fuck him.
