What you think about it? Are a guide or a true?
You want to be in any way. after all, many people regret playing nobel prize book all the time.
As some people say, "high" to implement a chemical film, and may be the same, but the refugees.
Optional air cargo vessel for non-life and satisfaction is the loss development. It really is a hedonist you your life will be considered. About his health. If as seriously as they credit you can buy heroin hook blood as chair and start playing a video, listen to music, eating pizza.
Sorry for bad English.

Hmm. Agreed for the most part. Im not sure 'buy' is really the correct verb for the 'heroin hook blood as chair.' Perhaps 'ascertain'?
>>7885530
Air cargo vessel was mandatory in my day
Maybe it was made optional in lieu of chinese horsse to rescue us from empty dismal cave in unceasingly lusterless gray ocean?

Great. Far more hits than misses. Good guide to good literature after the early years. Important and influential regardless of what /lit/ memers will say. It's in vogue to hate on the Nobel but those people should be ignored since they don't want to read anything that's not the meme trilogy.
President Obama won a Nobel Peace Prize "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples" but yet he increased the amount of drone strikes on muslim nations.
Just let that sink in for a moment and then ask if it's a good guide or not.

the peace prize is nothing but a popularity contest, this has been established. the literature and science prizes are probably different, though.
Sam Harris hasn't received one but soe French nobody got it last year....
into le trash it goes
>>7885571
The sole reason it's influential is because it's a million dollars. All of its winners that aren't obvious are mediocre or garbage. The fact that fucking Winston Churchill won it, no matter how long ago that was, is proof that it's worthless shit
>>7885518
It's just like /lit/'s 100 favorite books. It's a good list to decide to read random stuff, when you don't know what to read. But you cannot take it too seriously.
Camus won it. The committee consists of philistines and pseudointellectuals.
>>7885648
I agree, your broad generalizing comment about people who make broad generalizing comments being raving idiots is correct
>>7885648
i said that the literature prize was probably decent. do you know how to read or
>>7885644
But Churchill is actually p. good m8. But, I agree, the prize was utterly delegitimized in 1941 when Joyce died without having won it.

Shut the fuck up.
>>7885530
this gives me naked lunch flashbacks
>>7885676
Shut the fuck up.
>>7885709
Shut the fuck up.

Ibsen, Tolstoj and Joyce didn't get it.
Fucking swedes m8
>>7885823
Very well, but shouldn't it place the greatest writers of an era - indeed, some of the greatest of all times - before people like Roger du Gard and Frans Sillanpaa?
>>7885823
Utter horseshit.
It is awarded to "the most outstanding work in an IDEAL direction".
Tolstoy, Ibsen, et. al. did not meet the requirement for "a lofty and sound idealism."
>>7885857
the modern nobel prize is pretty different from the old one anyway, partly due to logistical reasons regarding communication and translation
>>7885877
See, but that's wrong. The later Tolstoy is about as religiously idealist as it gets, and I know of no greater 20th century idealist than Joyce. They have no excuse: they are simply philistines. Have been from the beginning.
>no Proust
>no Tolstoy
>no Joyce
>no CĂ©line
>not even Borges

Proust and Joyce died relatively young
Dostowyeski wins a prize?
>>7885877
>tolstoy
>not loftily idealist
it's like they can't even be consistent with their own arbitrary criteria
of course today you win if you're a chinese dissenter
