>>25156223Make sure to brush up your reading with Pornography (Gombrowicz), On Human Bondage and Lolita
>>25156223I've read my copy twice and now I can shove two cocks in my ass
>>25157297This looks astonishingly similar to my friend's dad growing up who was an English teacher

>>25157716After Deep Vellum saved Dalkey from failure they removed a great number of out of print books from the catalog, but left Bottom's Dream in. I think this is a good sign.
>>25157297In your dreams anon.
>>25156223How does it compare in quality to everything else written after 1945? From what I understand it’s heavily inspired by FW.
>>25158153>After Deep Vellum saved Dalkey from failureQuick rundown?
>>25158194Schmidt's work isn't all that great. Most of them are just sexual jokes with lots of parodic intellectual talk.https://www.reddit.com/r/Arno_Schmidt/comments/1h5yybs/not_good/
>>25159544So essentially, Zettel’s Traum is him getting a bit big for his britches and he doesn’t have that same skill Joyce has in that linguistic wizardry in FW? Why do people even talk about this book here then if all it has going for it is its difficulty? Yes, /lit/ loves to talk about hard books but there’s at least there’s merit and skill behind them.
>>25156223the bottom referring to the lower part of a city, and the dream referring to becoming a wealthy aristocratof course to achieve that you will have to suck a couple of cocks along the way, but for OP it was a sacrifice he was willing to make

>>25159423That is pretty much it, Dalkey was going under, Deep Vellum bought them and turned things around.
