Let's be clear: Tao Lin is not a good writer
But I think his writing and his moderate success are important in that they show a generational malaise.
Character is substituted with drugs.
Experience with social media.
Philosophy with meaningless chatter between ageing hipsters
The most profound thing about his work is that its characters express a consistent lack of profundity in their own lives and exchanges.
So, how can we fix things?
