Yes, but they're all worthwhile readsexcept maybe TCOL49.

how does it feel not having will of your own?
Why aren't you reading the Meme Trilogy, /lit/?
>>7470865
Because I had read them all at lest 10 times when I was 13.
>>7470865
Because I'm reading the superior meme trilogy.
>had had
>>7470432
This gets me too, but what's the fucking alternative?
Just wrote "had had" for a work report 5 minutes ago. Feels good senpai.

It's like being jabbed in the throat.

>>7470088

You were never into music or film to begin with 2bh
Is Lucia Joyce the most patrician Waifu in literature? Can't believe Beckett was tapping that.
I wonder if Jimmy J ever got her to fart in his mouth.

Two "people" even actually upvoted that comment. Fuck, reddit is the gayest site on the internet.
Where else on the internet can you discuss literature? I don't think I can handle 4chan for much longer, /lit/ is the only place that keeps me coming back.
>>7469807
you can't discuss literature there, sorry
i only know of ilx and the rest are pretty much empty forums

Is there anyone like Pynchon and Delillo and Gaddis in other languages? I know of Bolano in Spanish but that's it.
cortazar a bit.
>>7469644
Sort of.
But is there no crazy system novel like Pynchon and Delillo from Germany or Russia or Asia?
Márquez?
What does /lit/ think of Alain De Button? Discovered him on YouTube through The School of Life where he narrates on different topics, Philosophy being the main one. Does he state the obvious or is he on to something?
>>7469527
>alain de button
He's shit tier. He warps philosophy into this sellable self-help shit.
His videos are good as an introduction to the philosopher, or maybe to see if you would find the philosopher interesting.

Is this any good? if not what are it's betters?
>>7468252
Jawid Mojaddedi's translation of al-Mathnawi is great. Look into it.
>>7468274
Oh and it seems one of the translators of that collection is Barks. He doesn't even know Farsi. He makes up translations based on hearsay and his own "artistic vision", which ruins the power and spirituality of Rumi.
This is very good.
Im keeping a dream journal. im hoping to get some cool stories out of it. Have you ever had a dream journal? What did you do with it? Did you write down any crazy weird dreams?
>>7468045
Making stories out of dreams is the epitome of le so randum Xd. Fuck off
90% of my dreams revolve around me missing my exams.
>tfw almost a college dropout
>>7468057
so randum? When i have a worthwhile dream, i write it down carefully, recalling every detail from the dream. I dont just get an idea and make it up as i go, i write the whole of the dream, with precise descriptions and explanations of minute details. Otherwise whats the point? I think it takes a significant writing ability to recall, and narrate your dream eloquently, in a way that makes sense to a reader.
Its not a greentext of what happened
>went to sleep
>dreamed of rainbow horses and talking pigs
>once upon a time a rainbow horse a talking pig
>they died shortly after meeting each other
>there was no funeral
>the end
Its a real challenge to remember all the things from your dreams.
