I took English Lit, History, French at A2

I know, I took them! For anyone of any intelligence (above the 'average' student) a straight set of As is pretty possible.

You're a weak faggot, what subjects do you take? AS levels are usually pretty facile, my man.

Hey Anon, do you ever listen to music while reading?

Inb4 shitstorm, reading The Subterraneans by Kerouac while listening to Charles Mingus is pretty interesting.

The great thing about Camus is that if you really need to you can read his - quite accurately translated - books in English first. Which I found was a great way of expanding on my existing French, as you are not struggling with the plot so much, you pick up the vocabulary that goes along with the plot and pace you are already aware of.

I have, but that is beside the point, French literature never gets discussed on /lit/. Who said you make the rules or should be so presumptuous anyway?

Then I guess that was the moment of conclusion for me - the sexual awakening; I liked ladyboys. I like ladybugs too and I thought about my not seeing them from years.

Most of the time people use it to excuse themselves from writing engaging narrative.

Yeah man, it means he's special!

But this has to be a joke.

Venus In Furs you say? It's more grotesque than perverted.

4chan isn't going to make this decision for you anon.

Do you want to write like Dostoyevsky or like Bukowski?

I'm hungover and kept putting my trip in the Subject box, lay off anon.

I never have had to.

I speak English and French and I have never felt the need (or had the need) to extend my parameters beyond that point. There are many of the most relevant examples of literature in those two languages; more than I'll ever need. Time would be wasted learning it when I can read literature from already 'beautiful' languages. I pity OP for being elitist about something he might regret.

lol

I agree with your construct.

Told once; being empty,
Leaves more space to live.
When the keen knife rest,
seen interest and change clean tumble slot machinehead,
asks questions of people never you see them.

Pigeons ring the halls,
the watchmen kick stools
on which students sit,
wait and kiss.
Never held a spider that could suck so dry,
never died before baby.
