go woke go broke
>maybe the niggers have feelings tooCan you believe the woke drivel they're calling "literature" nowadays?
I know you guys are trolling but the idea that a novel that uses the n-word 100+ times is "woke" is just very amusing to me for some reason, makes me wonder what would happen if we sent SJWs back in time to 1929
>>25189686This Faulkner?
>>25189752yes, that faulkner. and he was right, btw desu
>>25189686He was racist.
>>25189789not according to the literal nazis
>>25189686Still butthurt about McCarthy being called a retarded hack I see.
>>25189686Obligatory total nigger death here
>>25189686Why is there so many basedboy retards on /lit/
>>25189686Trying too hard
>>25189697>hyped as the worst person in history of literature>worst thing he did was not giving a guy concert ticket for free
Is Fagner one of the most overrated of the American giants? I have NEVER found his work to be compelling.
>>25189752Some of Faulkner's behavior in his personal life is perplexing. He appears to have been insecure with himself and a bit neurotic, but he never talked about it. Even once he was eventually recognized, surpassed the reputation of his grandfather, awarded the nobel prize, and began making money in Hollywood, alcoholism got the better of him.

>>25189686I just read this for the first time, I didn't really get any "white people bad" about it. I got "niggers are stupid and lazy" out of it, but I already knew that.>>25189697did nothing wrong
>>25190200the worst thing he did was having his retarded brother gelded, but that was after he tried to rape a little girl

White people started yet another pointless war in the middle east. Im starting to think they really are the baddies
>>25192798>pointless warThey killed 30,000 of their own people and are holding the global economy hostage. They need to die.
Light in August and Absalom are peak kino. These are the novels where Faulkner showcases his rather amazing voice.Sound and the Furry and As I Lay Dying are so derivative of Joyce and other continental modernist works that I consider them unreadable, and I will never understand why people like them.

>>251928601920's white trash needed to be beat over the head with obvious morals like that
>>25189686Ok OP, what isn’t woke?
I'm a euro and I love Faulkner. Do americans hate him because he's compulsory reading?
>>25192864Maybe I'm ignorant but I don't think 1920's white trash would read books like this.
>>25192868americans hate him because they're a nation of subhuman lardos
>>25192868Nah nobody hates him. We read AILD in AP lit and everyone enjoyed it.
>>25192868anything more complicated than a burger king menu is considered pretentious to burgers
>>25190208You’re nobody
>>25192915This is true in a sense though I know you’re being hyperbolic. I have American friends who believe me some sort of intellectual autist because I read a lot, I generally read a lot of classic stuff and Faulkner is about as recent as I go (generally). But though I am an autist, I am not an intellectual in any way shape or form. I just like reading, it’s literarily entertaining for me to explore different styles and I like to learn about things that lay outside of my own cultural sphere.
>>25192950>discipline equals autismit makes me sick the nonsense people have to tell themselves to justify their weakmindedness and laziness. maybe camps and gulags aren't a bad idea after all.
>>25192977It true I am a bit of a sperg but yeah, you’re right. Rampant anti intellectualism’s law has decreed that if you care about literature for literature’s sake; or you enjoy works that are considered more challenging because of how they force you to read in a more unorthodox manner, then you MUST be a rain man sperg.Checked lucky 7s
>>25189793he wasn't racist enough.
>>25190288Niggers just being stupid and lazy was a pretty pillow fisted and woke coded sentiment for the time.
>>25192915Have you seen burger king menus these days? They are essentially Finnigan's Wake. Takes a high Iq to understand them.
>>25192868>faulkner as compulsory readingpicrel >why do Americans hate himwe hate anything that requires us to think, but /lit/ hates him because he didn't type "LYNCH NIGGERS KILL NIGGERS" for 500 pages. that and the thought-terminating Nabokov shitpost
