Recommend me some children's books, /lit/, preferably the ones with top-tier heroines like Anne Shirley or Sara Crewe.
Atlas Shrugged
Das Kapital
CS lewis, gk chesterton, rudyard kipling, roald dahl and Enid blyton are enjoyable.
If I read this, will I become a meme?
It would be extremely painful.
That tingling on the side of your neck is your body preparing itself as you consider reading it. You won't regret it.
It's a mainstream novel about gen x detatchment, depression, drug abuse, escapism through entertainment, addiction, and family.
It follows an adult narrative, a teen narrative, and a political terrorism narrative.
It's written in conversational prose full of "like"s, American colloquialism, and the odd big dictionary word shoved in to be quirky.
It's a pretty quick and easy read (2-4 weeks at 1/2 hours a day) and it's a bestseller.
If any of this interests you, you can read it for the time it'd take to read 2 or 3 shorter books,...

>don't like reading philosophy anymore because I'm realizing none of my genius theories and ideas are original
>if I keep reading I can't take credit for these things I came up with on my own anymore
wat do?
Face your own insignificance. What you think may not be original but chances are the geniuses we remember developed/explained them better so reading them will give you a better understanding of yourself.
you apply them to real-life examples. that's essentially all that academics do
>>8202116
the only reason why you "came up" with so many "genius theories" all by yourself it's because you are submerged into them with the whole modern culture which is based upon them, reading philosophy books you just find it out
Who was the real successor to Kant, Schopenhauer or Hegel? What is the reasoning behind your choice?
>>8201991
Fichte
Schoppy was the true successor, but Hegel set off on his own more and was a self made giant.

hey guys, i'm a big fan of political satire novels, and want to write one of my own. but i'm worried that, if something as good as the Yurope novels can't get published in print, how the hell can I?
>>8201969
What level of irony is this written at
I don't know if it's a serious attempt at satire or a parody of similar satire or an ironic acceptance of the original satire or some other meta shit
And the op is just as confusing
Don't use real names and your pandering shit will have a fractionally less minuscule chance of being published than this.
y they do this?
>>8201968
Because most people are pseuds who think existentialism=nihilism
>>8201968
because they resent men?
because they're a website designed to make fun of things
catch some feels op?
It wasn't that he was crushed by the educational system.
It was that the little faggot couldn't handle his liquor.
Worst Hesse novel I've read. Wondering if I should bother picking up Glass Bead Game after this special snowflake nonsense
>>8201874
if this is the worst novel you've read of an absolutely fucking no-talent pretentious fuckwad then, no, you shouldn't. i've read glass bead game last year and I hated it so much that I didn't read any book for months, which never happened since i was 7 years old, just because this shit made me hate reading
>>8201874
Govinda should have given Siddhartha a blowjob.
Glass Bead Game is a very boring book with great ideas in it.
