The protagonist from No Longer Human goes out of his way to often appear like he isn't a shut in. He holds jobs, hooks up with ladies and even goes to political meetings.
Both of the protagonist's from Atomised have jobs and relationships.

Ok, how about you stop googling names from ''important women writers'' and give me a example of a powerful and unique female writer?
For instance, Poe is the fucking boss of gothic romance and psychological horror besides he was one of the pioneers in detective genre with Dupin

Now is there a female author who can write better similar shit of Poe? or be just as pioneer as him in some other area?

I also read Clarice when I was 16 and it sucked

That's debatable but point taken. You shouldn't write off a writer just because of their gender. Though on the other hand, you shouldn't go out of your way to read books just because of the author's gender.

>>9947842
riding poe's cock isn't going to make you a better writer and dickinson and poe aren't comparable in the way that you're trying to force them.

writing isn't something that can be summed up to MY FAVORITE AUTHOR > YOUR FAVORITE AUTHOR. And no, not because of your sickening and vague sense of subjectivity. Rather because authors consider and extrapolate on their own thoughts: which are nuanced, open to misinterpretation, and by nature of the activity largely self-referential. Saying Tolstoy is any better of a writer than Shakespeare is just naive and venomous. The same goes for Dickinson and Poe, and you would do well to approach authors on their own ground, critiquing where you find an honest misgiving - Instead of just lauding your selected favorites evermore like a giddy schoolgirl, constantly tribbing on convoluted prose.

now go outside and play soccer you little fuckhead
