I hate how literature is marketed as fun but people are held hostage by pseudo intellectual threats of their place in the pseud hierarchy.
>Bro, Joyce is fun! Read it bro!
>OMG! You didn't like Finnegans Wake? You didn't enjoy a shitload of allusions?! What a pleb! Book quality is objective!
And it's so obvious that many old books were written as pulpy disposable fun but are now revered by pretentious people for supposedly having "stunning philosophical and psychological insights!"
Seeing people on lit talk about university or even certain university courses as being necessary for writing good books shows the level of idiocy in literary culture.
Seeing people talk about reading prose books to learn maths makes e realise that some people are too dumb to realise that literary subjects no longer make up all intellectual activities.
