/lit/ - Literature

I've read this
As it sinks deeper and deeper into contemplation, I think I am starting to understand what is wrong with modern literature and movies of modern literature.
As the thoughts mend thought, i think I understand. The language being strange and esoteric means it doesn't bite until you've processed it, similar to what happens when you read Moby Dick.

And I think I understand what Tolkien Estates viewpoint is: >>20950714
If you don't understand what leaving home is, you can never make art that involves growth or exploration, or even adventure.
Something so basic, it hurts to realize people don't understand it as they get paid to make shlock.

I thought this book was quintessential reddit but it's really just diet Jung minus a little schizophrenia. Why does /lit/ not care about Campbell?

What am I in for?

I understand everything in this book except the process of Apotheosis. Seems almost nonsequitur to me. This is particularly troublesome to me because I always feel trouble at this stage in my own hero's journey. Who can help me understand?
