A Little Cloud and A Painful Case. Both are perfect vignettes of people I don’t want to become. A Little Cloud is especially painful becuase the ending is so depressing, and all Joyce had to do to display utter defeat in the face of life was make a guy yell at his kid. I would even argue that the ending of A Little Cloud was written better than The Dead in terms of raw emotion.

When I bought Lolita the cashier at B&N was one of the art hoes from my French class in uni and she looked at me oddly and snickered when she saw the name of the book. I was pretty overweight at the time and hadn’t had a shave in a couple of days, I also had pasta sauce on my shirt because it was the cleanest one I had at the time. She said
>”Uhh Anon I didn’t know you liked these kinds of books”
She put a large emphasis on the “these” part too
>w-well I just heard it was g-good. W-what’s it even about?
She then laughed and said “suuure” and finished checking me out

Everyone who sat by her in the lecture hall gave me weird looks and tried to stay away from me as I walked in the next day

I won’t let them get her this time
