>>252104041. Tell us her favourite piece of literature2. Post a more sexualised photo of her

>>25210932By not getting it you acknowledge there is such a state as gettin it, and such state couldn't exist without someone not getting it therefore there's a dialectic struggle between getting it and not getting and, as such, by not getting it you're also getting it
>>25211349spoken like a true Marxist
Is there any contemporary russian lit worth reading or should I stick to Dosto and Tolstoy
Pelevin
>>25211249Is this worth reading
>>25211338No one knows
>>25211338No, it's garbage and the author is a faggot shill.
>>25211381elaborate? What's so bad about it.
Do writers have groupies?
First time on /lit/?
Bump
>>25209314Imagine the harem of lesbisns j k rowling could have. Bet goth hoes would line up for stephen king.
>>25209314depends how demoralizing you are for the european people and how much the lodge will fix prostitutes cashing those whore outside to pretend they like you since the semitic masonic lodge also runs the pedo rings that those whores come from...castration in the new fad, so, perhaps a woman with an attachment penis could have groupies.
Yes. Even if you are a mediocre writer with some degree of success you will have women reaching out because there is nothing more romcom than "dating an author." There might be less if you are someone like Evola but I doubt that number is zero. Source: my mediocre writing career
Recommend some novels that center on card games, board games, games of chance, betting, gambling, or casinos.
Chinaski played the ponies
The Gambler, by Dostoevsky. It's an anti-gambling novel though.

I'm genuinely destroyed and betrayed by Charles Dickens. I thought I would get into literature and reading and so I pick up the first book in arm's reach. It's like being in a slow motion collision. I'm utterly crushed under the weight of the blackpill here, I can't go on. It's like being trapped in a house up in flames, and then a support beam comes down on me and slams me to the ground as I start catching fire.
>>25210441Fuck off back to pisscord, tranny nigger.
>>25210646I've been here longer than you. you can dismiss people for not typing formally and I can dismiss people who give a fuck how somebody types in a place like thisgrammar pedants and people who type like they're writing a textbook here are so fucking gay. do your thing idc but coming at someone else for not playing along with your writer larp is gay as hell
>>25207741Why do zoomers need such grandiose buzzwords for everything? A book can't just be sad, it has to be "life-denying," as if you need to justify the fact that a book made you sad by implying that it's some sort of metaphysical threat to your soul or something. It isn't. It's just a sad book and the ending made you sad. Some books do that, it's normal. You don't have to excuse yourself by making up some narrative as if this book was written for the purpose of damaging your spirit. It wasn't.It's especially funny that you'd choose Dickens of all people to apply this meme phrase to. There are very few authors who praise common kindness and simple pleasures as highly as Dickens. Most of his books are about honest, energetic young men who - through sheer perseverance and good-naturedness - overcome some greedy old miser who would deny others their right to basic humanity. In short, he's one of the most life affirming artists who ever lived, usually to the point of being preachy about it (but you forgive him for that because you like his wide casts of zany characters and his prose is nice).You just happened to pick one of the extremely rare Dickens books that doesn't have a happy ending and for some reason chose to be a bitch about it. You do not have to behave as though everything that makes you sad is some kind of attack on your spirit. It's okay to be sad sometimes, including from a book.
Tale of Two Cities didn't leave that heavy of an impression on me. I thought Great Expectations was more gut punch filledI think the former actually had a surprisingly happy ending if I recall (minus Sydney's fate).
>>25210683Now is the time for Esoteric Dickensianism.
Okay, ive been sitting on this for months and i really cant anymore. im a production assistant at Bantam Spectra, been here for years. i am not going to post any proof because i actually want to keep my fucking job.The manuscript was delivered internally in January 2026. Not a partial. The actual full thing. GRRM apparently finished it sometime in late 2025 and the silence from his blog has been intentional, marketing told him to go dark.We have been in full editorial and layout pipeline since February. The official announcement is embargoed until Comic-Con, but we know hes going to announce it on his blog first because he doesnt give a fuck, with the actual release window being around fall. They want those holiday sales.The book is long, like long long, think AFFC and ADWD in one book, I wont say the word count because that alone would identify the source, but its about 1600 manuscript pages. People will not be disappointed on that front.The marketing team has been talking about a coordinated campaign that involves HBO so theres probably content planned to drop alongside the release, ill let you guys figure that out.Ill check this thread for a bit but i wont confirm or deny details that could identify me. Dont ask me stupid shit and yes jon is back lol
>>25210466>Daario and Patchface are siblings somehowand what does that imply ? why is this a big twist ?
It will be revealed that Jon is the legitimate son of Eddard Stark and Ashara Dwayne
>>25211158Oh, and Jon was babyswapped with Faegon. Varys knows about it
>>25211163Yeah, so actually Faegon is the son of Ned and Ashara. Jon is just some bastard from flea bottom
>>25209372>>Edmure and Jeyne Westerling survive the epilogueLmaooo this retard is mixing up the epilogue and prologue again just like back in January

>>25209196what's 'lew doin here on 'lit?
So did Lana get raped at the end or what? Aside from that this ended way happier than I thought it would.
>>25206982>he's being enabled to keep acting like a retard and will never changeSo a happy ending then
>>25206762I recently read The Neon Bible and if he could do that at sixteen I'm sure he would have been one of the greats.
>>25210730Well I played Red Dead some years ago and there’s a city in that which is probably meant to be a fictional version of New Orleans and if I recall correctly it was full of non whites and frogs… yuck, fortunately it’s like gta in the sense that you can just shoot them in the head if you feel like it.
>>25210986His adventures with the blacks and gays are completely retarded though. Also, if you pay close attention you'll notice that he never actually read Boethius. He's "intelligent" in the sense that he's better educated than the literal slum dwellers surrounding him, but he's not intelligent enough to avoid making a complete ass of himself everywhere he goes.
>>25211187He has no social intelligence obviously
>age>current book>your thoughts on it
>23>Great ExpectationsI was extremely hyped and I'm finding it very boring. I'm like 1/3th through, when Pip arrives to London, and things seen to start getting interesting, but God. I'm normally a very patient reader but the stupid plot, the retardation of every single character and their fagginess made me almost drop it.
>>>Threadly schizo that thinks people can figure out who you are or where you live by knowing your age, what book you're reading right now and how you currently feel about it having a melty as usualWhy are schizophrenics like this?
>>25211080>retard thinks because he's posting on an anonymous website that he is anonymous >doesn't understand how building a profile works>didn't even say hello to his handlers
19The Birth of Tragedy (Stanford translation)I think I'm too stupid for this book, or at least I'm not familiar enough with Schopenhauer to understand the framework that Nietzsche is working in here. I'm reading it very slowly, maybe two sections a day, sometimes re-reading them again later that day if I really felt lost the first time. I'm traveling right now but once I'm home I think I'll re-read everything I've read up to this point in full and take notes down.
>>25206266>Dune: Messiah>Too much yappingIf you don't like it you're going to have a rough go withe the later novels. From Children and onwards it's more or less a dissertation on messianic figures and the nature of dictatorships.
Which is the true heir to Céline?
I am.
It's Sollers – ‘Women’.
>>25210104Who are these people?

>>25211034LOCATION: Middle America DATE: 10/11/2001SUBJECT: Duh, stupid The flags were big. Disturbingly big. Where did they get flags that big. I was walking down the street when I saw a flag so big, so insanely big it covered an entire facade, that I forgot I was in the middle of a suburb and wondered if the American Nazi Party had taken over. I was so caught up in the spectacle of to, that I bumped into someone on the street. They asked, “Where’s your flag?”—“My flag?”—They called out, “Are you in-American? Didn’t you see what happened on TV?” I was perspiring profusely when suddenly someone gave me a handkerchief, patterned like the American flag. “Excuse me,” I blurted. “Can you point me in the direction of the flag store? I’d like to buy a flag to drape over my T.V.”—“Huh?”—“Y’know,” I continued. “To commemorate all the people who were charred alive and crushed by the falling debris at the Twin Towers.”—“I want to show I’m a patriot.”—“Oh…. Then you want the flag store.”—“Yeah. Where is it?”—“Next to the T.V. store. You can’t miss it. It’s next to the big flag.”—“O.K.”
