So what went wrong on this? Why did it not end up being the new

Lmao this. I could never take it seriously. It probably has inflated reviews from watchmen fans and shit

I bet most of the people who will judge this book in this thread won't have read it.

His Lucia Joyce chapter was fucking terrible. And the fact he said he had to stop writing for a year because the section drained him was so pathetic I just couldn't even bother to give the book another chance.

>>9453086
Because nobody whose opinion you parrot has read it yet

besides having the stigma of been written by an egotistical comic book writer and self proclaimed wizard of white race and male sex, it just hasnt reached that literary force that Ulysses did. and in this hyper-politically correct sensitive climate, no self preserving scholar would name it a triumph in anything other than good fantasy.

i tried eight different places and was unable to buy it online - most of them won't sell outside their own countries. i couldn't pirate it, so i guess i miss out on that one.
