Just finished "miss wyoming", disappointed as fuck. By some art fag with a degree in conceptual art, its boring af.
Compared to books dealing with same themes; Broom of the system, COL49, Point Omega, it is straight up YA tier: flash backs that actually explain the story, a climax and a happy end. I'm just disgusted, I couldn't enjoy it, all the way thinkin " this is pleb shit."

tl;dr; Has PoMo ruined me and my taste? Is Coupland shit or am I a jaded elitist?
started on Bolano's short stories: this I can enjoy.

bump I assume Coupland is pleb tier?

What's PoMo? How was The Broom of the System? As far as I know, you're the only person who has ever read it.

Why was the dude so eager to publish his senior thesis considering he didn't even make a career out of being a novelist? Like why not just wait until you have some more writing experience and fine tune the shit that you rushed out so that you could get your bachelor's degree? I don't understand.

The idea of being a published author, especially at an age when most people haven't gotten jack shit done yet, probably sounded cool to him at the time.

IIRC, he got a six figure advance for it. I would have published it too, desu.
