Hey man, no shame about loving the Lovecraft. I'm doing a module about Poe and talk to people a lot in an academic sense about Lovecraft and Stephen King. Shit's intellectual.

Just Don Quixote or any of his other stuff?

also what's your take on Camus?

>>9708780
Just Don Quixote

I've only read "The Stranger" and "The Guest" of Camus and in English. Didn't like them. Boring and too simple.

>>9708797
>Just Don Quixote

Fucking hell, you're a pleb. Do you even read? Get off my board.

>>9708797
ahh, I've read Camus in both French and English, and while I personally don't agree with simple being bad, I can see why someone would find it boring. All good, though.

>>9708800
No

>>9708800
please note the guy who asked if just Quixote (me) and this guy (cringe personified) are not the same person.

>>9708809
He's just joshing around with the good old boys. I can't remember why I didn't read Exemplary Stories when I read Don Quixote. I've since developed the habit of reading all of an author until I'm bored or don't like it.

>>9708757
>John Steinbeck
>Mark Twain
I went through a huge Twain phase about a year ago. He's like an American Gogol only his acerbic humor grows more cantankerous with age. The Mysterious Stranger and The Man that Corrupted Hadleyburg are masterpieces. Steinbeck is more often praised, but I think it's because he's gotten more publicity rather than because he's actually a decent writer.

>>9708942
>Henry James
Another great writer too often ignored or suppressed because his works are "too long" and "too boring." Remember Gass' story about the time he taught James in one of his classes?

>>9709600
>Katherine Mansfield
I remember reading her when I was 16 and thinking she was a better short story writer than most other often-praised authors. The depth of character, the perfect pacing and ear for dialogue with subtext.

>>9709692
Oh yeah, I'm 25.
