Now that the dust has settled... was he right?
>>24094081he didn't even say anything remotely original. omnia vanitas
>>24094081Yes but he seemed to be somewhat oblivious to how truly pessimistic his ideas were and how unconvincing and nihilistic his solutions are.He began to understand himself (his own hypocracies) through the more autobiographical aspects of The Fall and also The Last Man but he died before that understanding could ever amount to anything which is really such a shame.I would have loved to see him interact directly with Simone Weil's weird humanistic mysticism.
Absolutely hate all the absurdism and existentialism. Horrible stuff.
>>24094081Dislike him. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up. A nonentity, means absolutely nothing to me. Awful.
