Can we have a thread dedicated to the dumbest people in literature?
I mean complete retards who've somehow had historical impact, fame, or reverence put upon their works.

I feel bad posting him since it's not as if he pretended to be something he was not. He owned how dumb he was, to a certain extent. Kerouac is likely up there as well as Camus.

he's not just exceptionally ugly, he has all of the characteristics

instead of posting that you could just go look at a picture of him and a picture of the stereotyped characteristics and compare them. give your puny brain some time to process it
>>
>>9677566
Is Jim Thompson famous for doing anything other than what he actually did? I.e., write some pretty badass, down and dirty genre fiction about, eg., getting a boner from a chick with a shriveled baby arm who also happened to have a very nice ass?

Or being an alcoholoic and writing a book about a stay in the sanitarium and getting your neck 'djusted by the negro attendant? And seeing another girl with a nice ass laying on a bed.
>>
the player one ready writer is actually pretty stupid

that's a 45 year old man whose writing excerpts look like theyre straight from r/wrtingprompts. multiple people i asked thought the excerpts i sent were actually from there. but i mean he's 45 and only read like 30 books in his life, and almost all of them are highschool reading so he's not really an author nor is he even a reader

Ehhhhhhhh I think there is more there than he is given credit for. I wrote a critical piece on him recently. I admit he is a dirty old man but...

>>9677553
He has immense historical value outside of literature.

Quints have it. Sure.

I wrote a piece looking at his view of women as either sex objects or salvific signifiers. He either views women as something to conquer and for his pleasure or as something he desires to transform himself. Ironically, the women he views as salvific he usually never met or no longer had in his wife. I used Love is a Dog From Hell mostly. Specifically Girls in Gingham Dresses, My 6 Foot Goddess, I'm Snaggletooth, and the one that may have been about Sylvia plath. It was about a woman he wanted to meet but never dead and he loved her work.
