/lit/ - Literature

I feel trapped in a web of circumstances i don't understand or have the power to do anything about it. It seems as if fate is carrying my life away and i can only watch and mutter "why".
What books should i read?

I had facial surgery last year to fix my fucked up teeth.
I can beath through my nose now and my gums are healthier, I guess I look slightly better too, but the teeth are still not perfect, I also have some TMJ pains now that I hope I can fix soon.
Sometimes I think God or some other thing punished me for my vanity. I'll just leave things as they are.

write what's on your mind

You guys should study Flaubert.

He's a great example of a normal guy who wrote far above what he should have been capable of through sheer force of will, obsession, and autistically focused revision. If any of you are serious about writing, study Flaubert, his fiction and also his letters.
