It must get boring reading nothing but "impressive" and "noteworthy" books, right?
when i try to break up reading "great" books with easier-reading contemporary shit it's almost always disappointing and a waste of time
Impressive and noteworthy books, like their analogue in food or music, have a lot of variety. Slop is all the same
>>25301146Actually no. I was shocked when I discovered a book from the 1500s has more battles, naked women, wit, and romance in a single chapter than all 4,000 pages of Game of Thrones put together.

>>25301217What the hell are you talking about
>>25301146Nope.
>>25301220I'm talking about faggots who try to say Morecock is on the same level as Chekhov and that genre marketing categories for mass-produced literature is the same as literary conventions predating their fecal slop
>>25301146surely not as boring as constantly thinking in terms of a high-culture/low-culture binary, i hate that>>25301209all zones of culture look homogeneous until you start to explore them yourself and evolve the necessary organs of perception
alternate planet story about incest with inhumanly horny characters and the mc is an acrobat philosopher psychiatrist and it happens to use every narrative trick ever. how is this boring?>>25301209genre fiction is defined by being the same. there is a reason ada or ardor is not sci fi for example.
