/lit/ - Literature

Last night I had a dream that I was at a library and there was a group there to discuss a section of IJ. We were all sitting around in a circle and DFW was there too. The "leader" of the group began to read a passage from the book and David kept fidgeting and being extremely distracting.
After she finished, I made a joke and everyone in the group laughed.

Have you ever had any /lit/ related dreams?

Hello

>Reading Infinite Jest on a Kindle

Am I gonna make it bros? I want the same experience so I've been telling people what book I'm reading when they see me on the metro.

Do you think a writer should have a clean conscience?

Until a couple of years ago I hadn't really done anything that would have made me loathe myself or feel the need to penance for. My literary ambitions were powerful and I couldn't wait to get published and put myself out there, etc. But now, a few years later, I have had to accept that I am a flawed person who has made mistakes in the past which have hurt others and tarnished my reputation in the eyes of people. At this point I am too ashamed of myself to want to get published and don't feel worthy of "fighting the good fight" in the name of virtue, beauty, empathy etc.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Why are some of his chapters just so damn comfy?

I wish I could attend ETA desu

What went wrong?

Why does he wear the bandanna?

He truly was a fellow of the most infinite jest

>With a gulp, he realised, to his horror, that he had become what he had feared all along- a mere broom of the system.

Was he a sperg? Why would anyone write like this?

he was an autistic narcissist

Autist or narcissist?

(extend this question to anyone beyond DFW if you wish)

why did he wear a bandana?

Thoughts on him?

Just finished A Supposedly Fun Thing and I'm on Pale King now.

The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you.

Is there any way out of the trappings of self-consciousness?

is he just jbp for people who think they are too good for jbp?
