>>25186996How about McElroy instead?
>>25187048His ideas are good but he is not talented enough for them.
>>25186996This might be hard to wrap your head around, but people posting on twitter don't change the book
>>25187050The book is ultimately constructed by the reader, and if the reader is too influenced by twitter, the book is foreverally ruined
>>25187050let me bash your dog's head in with a copy of Mao II and tell me if the book is unchanged for you
>>25186996>he lets grifters influence his opinion on artLOL
>>25186996>waaah i’m jewish and people are calling me kike waaah>i drink and i hate my wifeThe wit of Roth.
>>25187072I havent read all his books but this didnt describe any of the ones I readyou should give him a real shot instead of just assuming what he's like because hes jewishHe's quite "based" and "redpilled" in some regards (complaining about ghetto blacks)
>>25187082Bruv it’s his most known one
>>25187050Cope, the fandom is as important as the book and the author. There is a reason that French bullshit that tried to focus on the text failed.
>>25187086nothing about hating his wife though is there
>>25187094brainwashed by the longnose to subjugate yourself.anyone can take any work they want and posit any idea they want onto it. this is how New Criticism, post-structuralism and Death of the Author function as ideas.it's easy to undermine the intention of a creative if you conflate their ideas with that of the perceived enjoyers. you're only harming your own education by doing so, though
>>25186996which podcasters are shilling delilo?
>>25186996>>DeLillo ruined by schizophrenic wannabe podcastersqrd?
>>25187086That book was a boring drivel. I've read portnoy's, Nemesis, Exit ghost and The Plot and they're all mid. Also all of them are about jews. What a lack of imagination.
>>25186996>Rothliterally who?
Cant get through the first ten pages
>>25186996>it's time to get into Roth, anonshow did you misspell Barth so badly?
>>25187048oh, i would... IF THEY WOULD REPRINT HIS GODDAMN NOVELS!!!!!!
>>25187230>>25187248Any of the leftwing conspiracy theory podcasts. TrueAnon and whoever they have as guests are probably DeLillo fanboys.
>>25186996Roth was ruined by being born jewish
>>25187597How'd you miss the Dalkey reissues a couple years ago?
>>25187740Trueanon is a Vollmann podcast
You never liked any of those authors in the first place if that's all it takes. You are like the the rest of social media hipsters who just pretend for attention but on 4chan instead. I hope every single person /r/literature shill all your """favorite authors""" and you end up killing yourself, retard.
>>25187094>the fandom is as important as the book and the author.Subhuman. You are less than a smear of shit on the streets at this point.
>>25187547Is this where Harmony Korine got the idea for Julien Donkey-boy from?
>>25187976Getting this mad over a little joke on 4chan. Very low IQ.
>>25187997I don't think nobody should get so worked up about what anyone else is thinking, that's not healthy.
>>25186996>ruined by schizophrenic wannabe podcastersuh what?
>>25188079The twist is that OP was talking about himself.
>>25188099that would be disappointing, i would love to watch a podcast featuring a schizo seeking hidden meaning in delillo novels
>>25187094>lit>fandomnever come back here again
>>25188104"Death Is Just Around the Corner" schizo leftist who sees conspiracies in everything, name is even taken from DeLillo.
>>25188112thanx
>open thread>filled with people who obviously haven't read Philip RothThis board is so predictable.
>>25187259>all of them are about jewsWho cares? It's like complaining Scorsese makes movies about Italians. Read American Pastoral, The Human Stain, Sabbath's Theater, you picked a bunch of his late books where he's ruminating on his childhood.
>>25187875i only started to get into lesser-known postmodernists in the past year or so. i snagged W&M on Amazon for decently cheap and i got three of his other novels but thats it
>>25188141The Italians have aesthetic and historic value.
