>not understanding that OP doesn't endorse the views of the review he posted, but rather came across it while pursuing a vague interest in Faulkner, and shared it with us because it so fully embodies a personality type that is near universally despised here to the point that most people on /lit/ would be incredulous that this caricature actually exists in the world.

op was clearly going for a laff. maybe not a funny one but you'd have to be retarded not to see that this was the motive here.

AILD is a great book, and not even that difficult to understand. Sounds like that reviewer didn't even attempt to think about what she was reading.

as i lay dying is a better band than a book

>not even that difficult to understand
Wow you must be a genius. 15 different alternating narrators speaking in southern redneck dialect was confusing in my experience.

If you feel the need to "thoroughly dismantle" 4chan posts then you've already lost.
The guy you quoted is fighting shadows.
