GENERAL BOARD RULES:

1. Global rules relating to illegal/board-jeopardizing content are enforced.
2. Slander/libel Dwayne "Wanton Waylaid Bercesure-Jobber Names" "The Rock" Johnson at ur own peril.
3. As much as possible keep discussion related to literature or its creation/critique. Philosophy threads should preferably pertain to a direct written source (this definition's flexible in anticipation of wat ppl like 2 use these boards 4), branching out accordingly. /lit/ boards regularly serve as catch-awls for "social science" discussion, which suffices in moderation but doesn't excuse eschewing conversation about the board's chosen topic + its baseline medium (writtan + reedan).
4. Poasts awn this board are occasionally harvested foar submissions ean2 the board magazine, THE /LIT/TYZEN'S FEUILLETON (collective issues interred herein: https://mega.nz/folder/vh5ilKLZ#6AuBFAfWUYlBdr_ob1j5KQ) - if you do not desire your poasts 2 evur find their waie ean2 the feuilleton, please note in the subject phield oar body "NF". Submit werks 2 [email protected] eef 1 soe desires.

This serves as a haberdasherized nu hoam ov duh /lit/erary loam for collective /lit/izens blasted to the four winds after the 'kunpocalypse. Preservation and perseverance provides the utmoast value in prestige-emptied pallet-towns lyk our parochial neck ov duh wouds, so pick your patois and commit to poastean-novelly pashtunwali - or simply enjoie the livean archives, thrivean n growean b4 ur eyes.

/lit/ will inevitably remain a slow board, so post appropriately & enjoy your stay.

/LIT/ty club season 3 and onwards bound Anonymous 11/27/22(Sun)17:04:04 No.4083[Reply][Last 50 Posts]

B.O. OP EDIT: VIEW THE /LIT/PENDIUM HERE - https://mega.nz/folder/ThhnnayI#T30OHb3sHifcmVzLlnkYZg

Today begins a new chapter into the /lit/club. I made a fateful mistake by choosing the subject for the first nomination (Book Published 2 Years Ago) because of those bastards at the FBI. There are different resources vying for the vacancy filled by such a great site and I found one called

annas-archive.org which indexes a bunch of shadow sites.

Anyways without more stalling tactics. I present the list for this season and the nomination: World of Wonders
https://annas-archive.org/md5/fce03919d0c018a1334ff83aa0790a7e

Thank you everyone as usual and I look forward to your tastes.

ANIMAL PLANET is the next theme, books centered around animal characters and their environment.

UNDERWORLD by DON DELILLO is our new book to read. I'm reading it with some friends and it's kind of what's screwed up my book process because they have been putting books in for me to read. So I apologize you are like my wife and they are like my hot new girlfriend I'm cheating on you with (no homo). It's a cool book I'm assuming in the vein of Ulysses. It's also long so we will say 3-4 weeks.

https://annas-archive.org/md5/0ddd73b85abbbee9df6c62b998875c49

ANIMAL PROTAGANIST is next, if I get other nomination themes I'll incorporate them like previous years and we will jump back on schedule

Satire in general is pretty boring. It can sometimes work for short stories, but a novel length satire is going too far.

Lolita didn't make the nips lolicons, they have had a long history of it before that. I do think the book might have helped in injecting jewish poison into their minds since the authors wife was a Russian Jew.

I'm glad he managed to overcome that handicap he had from birth and became a prominant author, at least.

I mean Cuckold is his last name, so it isn't like it's strictly his parents' fault.

Let's go, let's make this board more alive and helpful to anons. Depending in your reply I'll be buying some books from these authors.

Is William Faulkner really good or not? Should I buy his stuff? Does he deserve a Nobel?

Is Ivan Gontcharóv good?

Is Le Rouge et le Noir by Stendhal overrated?

Is 11/22/63 by Stephen King "good" by his standards? I need to be an americanmutt boomer to enjoy it?

Are Ken Follett and Robert Musil pretentious shit for midwits?

Is Mark Twain underrated?

Is Haruki Murakami really the best Japanese modern writer or just the one by beloved by westerns?

I've heard that it's a bit philosophical compared to typical modern fantasy slop, and almost as crazy as Might and Magic with the alien shit and fantasy mixed together.
I'll probably never actually read it, I'm trying to avoid reading fantasy, especially series.

Anonymous 10/24/24(Thu)04:53:08 No.5849

>>5843
Prince Of Nothing is the first trilogy and it's a mostly grounded crusades-like Dark Fantasy setting. Although it constantly hints that shit will start going down soon.
It gets philosophical in certain parts, but it doesn't dwell on those themes too long. It prefers to keep a cinematic pace.
I'm not reading it so much out of love for Fantasy, as much as Bakker's prose being really good.
