/lit/ - Literature

you guys got punked. pnin gets cucked by vladimir vladimirovitch, the most obvious self insert in all of literature. nabby builds up his perfect russian expat for you to fawn over then says "i'm not like that guy, i'm the suave lepidopterist that fucks that guy's bitch". the scene with the nut cracker was him showing his readers how easy it is for him to toy with their feelings, like karmazinov pretending to drop something in front of one of his fans in dostoyevsky's demons. nabakov has contempt for his own readers, this is also why he spoils the ending of anna karenina in this one.

i can copy and dustribute my pirated e-book and audiobook copies flawlessly and indefinitely. the creation of samizdat is trivial and the age of book burnings has ended. even if you gain a legion of bookburners you will never be able to stifle sentiments even a little.
