ITT: unpopular opinions The Tunnel is a waste of a novel. It

Why would it have been better as a fragmented poem?

>>9206120
The spirit of the narrative and its themes aren't very well executed in prose form. Even though the novel is structured as an introduction to another work and presumably all things that are happening/have happened in the narrator's life exists OUTSIDE the narrative, which is admittedly interesting and fun, a poem would have worked better with the execution of what the author was trying to do.

Everything is so fragmented already, but the prose blocks several of the elements and ideas the novel wanted to achieve, and it tends to fall into irrelevance instead coming together by the end.

But that's just my observation, I could be wrong.

Shameful self-bump.

books are for women only real men smash puss and fuck shit up not read girly books haha

Delillo's Underworld is overrated. The dialogue is terrible and all the characters act the same.
