Whenever I walk into a bookstore I notice the kind of books that are on display and even the kind of books that they carry altogether are exclusively leftist-approved. I can't just browse the shelves and find something interesting because as soon as I flip a book over to the back, some Washington Post cuck or Lena Dunham is raving about it. Even the subject matter and the language of most novels today oozes with leftist bullshit. It seems you can't find good literature unless you read /lit/'s archives. How do you fuckers find NEW literature to read? Is anything new worth reading at all? The only new books I've been reading are political ones. Or from authors like Murakami who I can trust will not cuck me. thoughts?

Depends on what you want to read, if you specialize then you'll be good.
If it's worth it, you should read https://www.amazon.com/Apathy-Other-Small-Victories-Novel/dp/0312352190
It's god damned hilarious, but yeah unless you have good friends who read as well it's really good to research the genres and the history and relevance of them and then go through genres. That's how I like to read anyways

1949 is my cut. Mainly because of Mann's Doctor Faustus which I view as one of the last if not the last modernist masterwork to ever be published
So "now" that /ic/ has gone to shit where is the premiere 4chan board to discuss artwork? Is there any hope at all? Was there any in the first place?

b-b-but beckett...
The arts in general are primarily leftist domain because - reminder - reading literature is escapism. The majority of people don't read to be exposed to inconvenient truths, and those who do are typically actively seeking out material on said inconvenient truth to reaffirm their bias.
>thoughts?
Read history instead.
