/lit/ - Literature

What was his fucking problem?

Thomas Bernhard is great. What other authors should I check out if I enjoy him?

Rate Thomas Bernhard's work from best to worst.

HOLY SHIT

Mine is Bernhard: intelligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humor.

Anyone in /lit/ has ever read this austrian nigga? What yall think bout him?
Don't see much about him over here and I think /lit/ would enjoy.

Shiiiiieeeet I started writing seriously everyday like 2 months ago but I suddenly feel so lazy bout it.
Should I get obssessed by myself or should I take amphetamines?

Does anybody in here fuck wot Thomas Bernhard? It's strange that he's not much mentioned in 4chan, his works are mostly about autistic austrian dudes goin mad and -eventually- comittin suicide.

Thomas Bernhard's novels. The Loser and Correction has a lot of the same anti-natalist tendencies as Ligotti and Cioran. Woodcutters is also very entertaining if you share his pessimistic outlook. It is mostly him shit-talking people and artistic/intellectual culture in his head at a dinner party. He was sued when it first came out and the people recognized themselves in the novel.

Also if you liked Cioran, I would recommend his first book On the Heights of Despair. It's pretty juvenile (he wrote it when he was 23) but there are still some great passages and it lays the foundation for the rest of his work.
