please rec some more french literature like houellebecq. easy to read, modern, et basé.
>>25158324Turns out I’m less literate than I thought, I haven’t got a single rec for you anon, I’m sorry… and you asked so nicely too. Unfortunately I seldom read anything written in the 21st century.
>>25158329don't worry anon.. it's ok. i'll also take anything post-war. doesnt have to be 21st century
>>25158324Do you believe in God? Do you know French? My recommendations depends on your answers.
>>25158339oui to both
>>25158330In that case, do you like poetry? René Char’s poems are great to read if you like surrealism. I wouldn’t say it’s very adjacent to Houellebecq but it’s something I enjoy.
>>25158343I like some poetry. Especially the kind that is verbose and lofty. thank you for the rec
>>25158324NabeDarrieussecq, Truismes
>>25158354>Darrieussecq, Truismesit is feminist ?
>>25158351Even better of course to read French poetry if you’re French (or fluent) yourself.
Maximes et Pensées de Chamfort. Conveniently forgotten author and criminally underrated in France.
>>25158324Horrible "nation" full of smelly adulterous pederasts
>>25158471but enough about Israel
>>25158625Actually there's not much difference
>>25158364Depends how you read it. But I thought it was quite funny, and presents a more out-there scenario than Soumission.
>>25158471I like Gide a lot unironicallyIdk why people hate his writings so much
>>25160213gide's greatfun name to sayandre gideandre gide
>>25158324Jean Genet
