An abberation on a board intended for serious literary pursuits. I thought including a Winds of Winter cover would be funny but tbdesu that really hasn't got much to do with /lit/ alone.

Considering pic related, possibly to replace the Decline of the West. Seen it in the catalogue enough to feel like it's a contender.

It's just one guy spamming it. Guénon at least became spammed by a small following

The &amp in the background is pretty subtle and well done. I'm sure no-one would notice it if this version were to be recycled on Xeddit.

that honor levy cover is oh so photoshopped on kek. also where the fuck is how to win friends and influence people? amateur hour

Ah yes, the perfect shill: completely unnoticeable and illegible.

it's a well-done shop on first glance, but noticing that it's an (((Indigo))) store is the first indicator that half of the books shown would not be stocked there.

How could you mess this up?

Do you guys think that long after 4chan is dead, some of these books will be dug up like relics of old? I don't mean already popular ones. I mean 4chan authors or 4chan adjacent.

This was clearly an inside job.

I wouldn't bet on there being any outstanding works that make it out of the rubble of /lit/. There's been outside curiosity about /lit/ works in the past, but more in the context of them coming from 4chan and being made in a novel way, i.e., anonymous collaboration. The Legacy of Totalitarianism in a Tundra and Hypersphere made it into art exhibits and then the Bavarian State Library and Museum of Modern Art Library, respectively, but it wasn't because because people were actually reading them and deciding they were good.

I also think we're past that age of novelty, both in it practically being dead and in terms of 4chan's lost novelty/credibility (to outsiders). Then anything that tries particularly hard to be good loses something essential/novel about its environment, thus it stops being a 4chan work and has to contend with all other "serious" works.
