/lit/ - Literature

I require 10 metaphors from The Fellowship of the Ring from Book | chapter V and onward.

I've tried very hard to go through it and like this book but I just can't go on and read this further, it being an assingment given by my english major lecturer who's apparently a die-hard fanatic of "The Professor". Please save me /lit/.

What does /lit/ think about genre fiction?

I've finally decided to give the foundation series a try, currently on prelude. So far the narrative is a bit dull but I'm only a quarter in, I'm aware that the action in asimov's writings is in the dialogue but it really feels dragging at some parts, maybe that's because I don't know the characters that well yet because of a lack of proper development. What would you reckon I should do, continue reading the prelude or read something else from him?

alright faggots, I dare each and every one of you literati to list 1 "superior" philosopher than Nietzsche, without repeating someone else's post.

I fucking dare this cesspit to actually get to at least 50 posts.
