>>25161592>SHAME: narrator is the detective's sidekick>LAME: narrator is the murderer>TAME: narrator is the corpse>ACCLAIM: narrator is the murder weapon>REMEMBER MY NAME: narrator is a third party completely unrelated to the case who does not even know the murder was committed
>>25161641based, human acts is an excellent novel
>>25161683Is it actually? I seldom read anything written after WW2 but I want to give it a shot. I like some books like Pale Fire and stuff by Borges. Oh I sorta liked The Crossing too though I don’t rally have any desire to read anything else by McCarthy.
>>25161592>Literotica stories are always in 1st-person>AO3/HF OC stories are always in 3rd-person
>book is written
>>25161675Tell me this tale
>>25161709you don't sound like you read much or often, so i'd skip it
>>25162144>you don't sound like you read much or oftenYou’re mistaken, I read plenty, just classical to early 20th century.
>>25161592Most YA novels are written in the first personFemales have literally said they cannot follow a story written in the third person lolI pray for a meteor to strike the earth and rid us of females
>>25162163>Most YA novels are written in the first personHarry Potter isn't. Percy Jackson isn't. Eragon isn't.
>>25162152you're an autistic 20-something who just started reading like 2 years ago
>>2516218113 years ago, and I’m 33, youre probably right about the autism though. Also, you’re mildly combative aren’t you? I admittedly have a myopic attitude on 21st century and I’m simply asking if it is worth reading as a good introduction, if it is quality-wise, among the best contemporary literature has to offer. You tell me to skip it based on your assumption that I don’t read often, I was correcting you, so that maybe you’d find a better answer. I’ll look into it myself I suppose, thanks for nothing.
>>25162197>bitching about hostility on the infamous mongolian basket weaving platform
>>25162228I’ve been sent to make everyone here kind and amiable with each other. If you don’t like it you can kill yourself.
>>25161709It's good, in pic related is my more detailed opinion.
>>25162320Sounds very interesting actually, I’ll pick it up, thanks anon. I enjoyed Threads too, quite the dire and grim film.
>book regularly changes between first and third person viewpoints
>>25162167You named 3 out of thousandsYou win a prize!Idiot
>>25162228>being an aggressive retard about book recommendations for no reason It is no wonder nobody wants to post here anymore.
>>25162163>>25162167I don't think any of the YA novels I read as a kid were written in first personThe Belgariad, Bartimaeus, Artemis Fowl, Warriors, Wolf Brother, the Alchemyst, probably one or two others I'm forgettingI'm not female though
>>25162557good. the fewer thin skinned cowards here, the better
>>25162568You don’t belong here. Learn to capitalise first, you don’t want to be outed as the retard you are no?
>>25162582>i'm smart and interesting and i belong here!
>>25162611>no uI see.
>>25162582>Misses the comma after '...are, no?'Remove the plank from thine own eye
>>25162620A simple mistake; I’m only human, anon.
keep mashing f5 so you can squeeze another last word in, turbo-autismobot
>>25161626how would that read?
>>25162561>I don't think any of the YA novels I read as a kid were written in first personImagine being this out of touch yet feeling the need to comment based on your stupidity and ignorance
>>25161675>narrator is a third party completely unrelated to the case who does not even know the murder was committednarrator is tiffany, who was wearing her grandma hestia's brooch that day. shes telling her husband about what happened on the way home, that there was a car wreck where a tesla suddenly swerved into the next lane to assassinate an enemy of the government. however, (because she was nearby, but she doesnt know it) no one was injured, (but that government enemy was streaming on a chinese server, so now everyone knows that the reason for the kill switch in cars isnt just to prevent drunk driving but to assassinate people, though tiffany isnt aware of that). anyway after just getting through the intersection before the traffic got truly dreadful, tiffany was able to stop at kroger foods on the way home to purchase some real sugar pepsi to bring home to her husband, which theyre sipping together
>>25162197holy nerd
>narrator hates and openly mocks the protagonist >the protagonist didn't do anything to deserve such a scornful narration
>>25163215Dom Casmurro?
>>25163215>narrator hates and openly mocks the protagonist >the protagonist didn't do anything to deserve such a scornful narration>it's written in 1st person
>book is in a person
What? I read a book a year ago that was in first person. The entire book was a guy writing a letter to someone just to say>fuck you, asshole
>>25161592>book isn't written in second person future tense
>>25163409>you will get cucked, you will enjoy it.
oh shit, i just finished my first novella and it's written in first person. how fucked am i?
>>25163409you will find yourself in a beautiful house, you will find yourself with a large automobile, you will ask yourself, self how did i get here?
>>25161598That's third person (or third object) POV

>>25161675>REMEMBER MY NAME: narrator is a third party completely unrelated to the case who does not even know the murder was committedthe screwtape letters
>>25161791I suppose The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time sort of fits, as this guy>>25163074pointed out.I didn't have anything in mind originally, but I suppose Confession Of A Crap Artist (PKD) pretty much works. Narrator is a retard who has no idea about the little domestic drama going on around him.>>25167815>the screwtape lettersDon't get this.
