/lit/ - Literature

''Fantasy is, I think, not a lower but a higher form of Art, indeed the most nearly pure form, and so (when achieved) the most potent.''

When will you finally climb outside of your Joyce/Austen infested basements and accept Fantasy as literature, /lit?

I have a friend that thinks George RR Martin is a better writer than Tolkien.

How do I even address retardation at that level? Help me out /lit/.

For further clarification, he seems to legitimately think Tolkien has a bad grasp of the English language and literary devices. And that because GRRM has so many well-written characters(lol) he's a better writer.

Who do you prefer more ? George R.R. Martin or J.R.R. Tolkien?

Who would win in a no-rules prisonfight to the death with shivs? GRR or JRR?
