Novel/fiction fags BTFOd by Napoleon. Grow up, fiction is just bedtime stories for manchildren and smut for women, and writing fiction is a waste of time, like anybody wants to read your 2000 page novella on why women are evil. All this made even more true by the perilous times we are in, you should be reading all the history, philosophy, political science while actively preparing mind and body for what's coming.

My dad, a military guy whose brother died and who was abandoned by his parents (the type of guy with a dark stare of death), thinks exactly like that. Even for movies, if there's the smallest amount of fantasy and happiness inside, he won't watch it kek. Literally Napoleon

I don't have to do exactly what a great man of the past said. I'm a great man too.

You won't even follow this advice yourself.

>>25413382
And Napoleon also read The Sorrows of Young Werther seven times, carried it in his campaign library, and likely considered it his favorite book. Care to explain, faggot OP?

They were probably reading trash, 1700s genre fiction. As >>25413421 already said, Napoleon loved actual literature. He loved it SoYW so much that he insisted on meeting Goethe because of it. Besides, in the end, Napoleon made a better romantic hero than he did a ruler, not to discount his works, he was great, but he lost, yet he will live forever because of his legend.
Be honest, did you make this thread after you seethed really hard in the thread where you couldn’t read a hero of our time because you got bored? I can guess you probably don’t read much nonfiction either, just regurgitations of it and audiobooks while you do other things, chores at best, more likely social media and video games

Let's finish the relevant section:
>He was apparently overlooking the forty novels, including English ones in French translation, he himself had brought out.
>>
>>25413453
Nope, I just happened to open up to this section of Roberts Napoleon biography and immediately laughed at the thought of this place.
>>
>>25413505
The fact that you don’t actually read and feel insecure enough about it that you need to come here is pretty evident from >>25413481, you can even see the text that says it barely cropped out in your photo. So you can’t even read a full page of text in a biography.

>>25413481
>including English ones in French translation
Foolish anglophile Napoleon was

>>25413520
No you just fell for bait.

>>25413530
>I was merely pretending to be retarded
It’s not the 2010s anymore, you should know that acting like a retard means you functionally are one.

>>25413524
I’m English but I find him such a compelling figure, I think I wish he had won.

>>25413539
Idgaf go read your bedtime story
