Weekly reminder to be kinder and to encourage one another on this board. Anon hasn't read Shakespeare? He may be retarded faggy pleb, but at the very least you should recommend him/her some plays. Anon says he likes 2666? Ask him some specific questions as to why, rather than just calling him a brainlet or a retard and his new favorite book a meme.
Recall: /Lit/ is the Monteparnasse of the internet age. It's the last bastion of authentic literary discussion in an increasingly illiterate, degenerating society. Lift somebody up, don't push them away.

No. My point is you can call me a faggot, tell me to kill myself, etc., but plz do so in service of literature.

i remember one of my first posts here was about when to give up on a book because of lack of comprehension/difficulty and i to this day remember that i received an honest reply encouraging and guiding me.
although we sure do deal with a lot of shit, and im not innocent from contributing some of it, there is the occasional kernel of a recognition here that makes it all worth it.

True mate. It does feel good when I find a spec of insight in this trash heap.
