/lit/ - Literature

> I've been reading a lot of Japanese crime and horror fiction, and a lot of it seems concerned with the nature of evil as a kind of intellectual and psychological contagion, that evil spreads in a repressed society

>Fascinating, since Wordsworth is easily the gayest faggot to ever write "poetry". You have no taste at all and are probably one of the worst people alive on several counts.

> In some sense she walks the line which divides Joyce and Beckett. For Sarraute, words are powerful and its a topic worth exploring. Sarraute also believes naming a character strips them of their power in a literary sense. I'm not fucking kidding here guys. If there ever were to be a big three in 20th century literature it should be Joyce, Beckett, and Sarraute. Sarraute is necessary reading for any intellectual. Why the fuck is /lit/ so lacking in the third category of Sarraute??? As far as I'm aware, only me and one other anon have read Sarraute (the other guy is the one who always shits on Alain Robbe-Grillet and says, "If you want to read nouveau roman, read Sarraute. Robbe-Grillet is shit.") Please fellas, read Nathalie Sarraute. Tropismes is THE starting point. All of her subsequent works stem from the ideas presented in Tropismes. In fact I highly recommend a chronological reading of Sarraute to see how her artistry grows and to watch her become a master. However if you're only going to read one Sarraute work it should be Les Fruits d'Or, but of course I say Tropismes is a necessary prerequisite to any work written by Sarraute. I also highly recommend Vous les Entendez? because it covers the idea of the futility of instilling a passion, say for literature or art, in those whom you love. Bros...just read Nathalie Sarraute please. I promise it's life-changing literature. Reading Sarraute brought about the same joy and feelings I had reading Joyce and Beckett.
