oh ja, he isn't quite as ancient as Quintus Ennius or Plautus!

Encapsulating in the aspects of literature that stand out the most.

I liked it, /lit/ doesn't.

Why do you cry? Was it a good book? Did pinecone make you feel?

>>8272412
yes he did. I thought it was good but not great, until the last transit. then he hit it out of the park. now I can't stop thinking about those lovable idiots.

Pynchons my fav writer for sure because my fav thing in books is goofs, gags, jokes and rambunctious behavior, and his books are full to the brim of it. Every novel is like one of those novelty snake cans, you open the book & POP you get a face fulla snakes and you fall back cackling. The mad mind, the crack genius, to do it! and then you think hmmm whats he gonna do next, this trickster, and you pick the book back up and BZZZZZZZZZZ you get a shock and Hahahahahah you've been pranked again by the old pynchmeister,...

No luck so far, is his body of work the Holy Grail of our times?

Yes.

You can probably blame Dean Learner for this. Remember how he treated Randolph Caer?

The only man whose written more books than he's read.

Woolf had been writing here and there about and around the coming of this sort of literature years before, then fulfilled her own prophecy

>>8269251
It was also her favourite novel she wrote, no?

>>8269215

Please, tell me how you did it. I found it, though interesting, extremely boring.

>and that Greece was originally black
What? That's not what Black Athena is about it isn't some Afrocentrist garbage. The thesis is just that the Egyptian and western Asian influences on classical Greece were much greater than was previously thought.

>>8267874
It says that Africans were the original colonists of Greece, and the idea that Indo-Europeans were is a dated 19th Century thesis.

because he's not 'literary'.

>>8261920
elaborate

>>8261902

Because he's a hypocritical, arrogant, repetitive douchebag. Anyone that puts out as many shitty books as him, all with his name as the largest text on the cover, is someone worth hating.

That, and he coincidentally looks just like the head of department that kicked me out of university for not attending his lectures.

Is this experience with actual editors or some Wattpad wankers?

>>8278702
that is what you should expect dealing with editors in publishing

>>8278739
I beleive that entitely depends on the editor. You wont deliver a solid peoce pf speculative fiction to whoever the fuck published The Hunger Games. Know our scene.

I prefer Zizek if you want to talk about "fake" beliefs desu

Its a great record of Scientology. Last third of the book was just piling so many terrible things upon terrible things that I couldn't finish.
I think what's interesting is how few Scientologists there probably actually are, which makes me less concerned.

>>8278435
I have no clue but Gold Base is a fucking horror story, the way they go after anyone who says a word against their religion is...... spooky

Catalan has some. Josep Pla and Mercè Rodoreda are two I've enjoyed.

Väinö Linna. Täällä pohjantähden alla (Under the North Star) trilogy and Tuntematon sotilas (The Unknown Soldier) are the best Finnish novels I've read.
