The hotel staff, I think, considers us useless freeloaders who have come to America – land of honest laborers with crewcuts – to eat them out of house and home. I know all about this. Everyone bitched about parasites in the USSR too, bullshitted about how you had to be useful to society. In Russia the people who bitched were the ones who worked least. I've been a writer for ten years now. It's not my fault that neither state needs my labor. I do my work – where's my money? Both states bullshit about the justice of their systems, but where's my money?
He really swallowed communism whole hog.
>>24731216looks a reject from andy warhol's crew or a lost founding member of the smiths
>>24731225he's right though. he works as hard as anybody, does more to further human civilization, but all his work goes completely unrewarded and unappreciated.
>>24731234>does more to further human civilizationEdouard Limonov? The guy whose only talent was winning drinking contests by drinking a lot of oil beforehand and then throwing up, went to America to have gay sex with black homeless men, then returned to Russia to form a meme political party?
>>24731216>I've been a writer for ten years now. It's not my fault that neither state needs my labor. I do my work – where's my money? Both states bullshit about the justice of their systems, but where's my money?I felt that.
>>24731234 if I work my ass off digging and refilling the same hole over and over, I should be well paid for doing so even though no one asked me or hired me to do it and no one cares if I do it?
>>24731241He was also a great tailor. He made not only his own clothes but Elena's and everybody else's.
>>24731245You can't be comparing digging and refilling a hole to writing literary masterpieces?
>>24731257You can't be missing such an obvious point so bluntly stated?
>>24731267Are you using some homosexually-themed metaphorical language? In that case, yes you also deserve compensation.
>>24731270>can't address the point>gay jokeMaybe this is why Limonov is mostly forgotten, his readers are all retards.
>>24731275I take offense at that statement, sir.
>>24731279If the shoe fits.
>>24731284Perhaps when you are in a better mood, we can continue this discussion in a civilized manner.
Why does he call his underwear "my panties?" It makes it difficult to focus on the rest of the book. Very weird.
>>24731303It's a translation thing, I'm guessing. Kind of like how they use "Eddie Baby" to represent Edischka or whatever.2jkn8
>>24731216This is the end point of modernism. This is what the enlightenment inevitably would lead to - two fucking retarded ideologies combined within one man who looks like a 60 yr old sodomite trying to dress like a punk rock musician from the 80s while complaining that he has to get a real job. This is what liberal ideology is/ it’s apotheosis
>>24731288You are the one who took it this way, not me. You can address my point when you are ready for civil discussion.
>>24731321>trying to dress like a punk rock musician from the 80sI'm pretty sure the picture is from the 80s and he wasn't 60
>>24731309THE EDMEISTEREDCUNTEDSTEREDDIEEZZA>seps cannot into language.
>>24731251Have any pics of his creations?
>>24731234>he's right though. he works as hard as anybodyyeah that's the communism part. labor doesn't actually have any intrinsic value. to get paid you need to be doing labor somebody else wants to pay you for.
>>24731971>sepswhat is that?
>>24733277>what is that?https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Seppo
>>24731245People call it the “mudpie argument” because it’s fucking slop. You niggers are remedial
>seethe for 38 hours>barely sleep>just seethe>try to come up with argument>can't do>fuck it>I will just samefag and call him a nigger
>>24731216Is Grove ever gonna repress IT’S ME, EDDIE orrrrr… because this is getting fucking ridiculous
>>24731303I don't like it when he calls his ass his poopka
>>24734948>t. printcuckcouldn't be me
>>24731216why is everyone spamming Limonov on /lit/ all of a sudden
>>24734948how I feel with Insatiability by Stanislaw Witkiewicz not being reprinted
>>24735253It's hilarious. Poopka and peepka. I do approve of the translator's choice.
>>24734417>>seethe for 38 hours>>barely sleep>>just seethe>>try to comeLet me stop you right there.
>>24735266I've got a nice, signed hardcover 1st ed. Reading in print does enhance the experience quite a bit
>>24735820Is it in Russki?

>>24735272Why the small hat?
>>24735274Yeah! That’s another one… the Northwestern University edition doesn’t pass muster.
>>24735958my thirteenth reason is you telling me how little you paid for it in 1983…. … … go ahead. make my day.
>>24735958How can it be considered a first edition then?
