/lit/ - Literature

no but I've burned books before

could be worse, doing exams on progressive shit like this in a month or so

I've said it before. I'll say it now. And I'll say it again.
Hannah Kent is the epitome of Australian literature, and the future of our great tradition. Copious talent, education and insight into suffering and opression - she is both a woman and a lesbian - combine for a refreshing take on western civilisation's not-so-nice history of sexism and racism. This is the perfect historical novel. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

This is the ideal feminist literature. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

fuck the patriarchy

The only "literature" that gets any attention in this fucking country is feminist revisionary novels and other assorted politicized trash
a bunch of organized /lit/ shitposters could probably revitalize the whole system because there is nothing in the way of competition

I read this in school in place of Heart of Darkness

You don't know how bad it really is right now m8, I'm in year 12 right now and we're doing a semester on male oppression and a semester on racism, in which we contrast aboriginal racism with African American racism.
I've read the selection criteria for the curriculum and it specifically requires books by women and non-whites to "reflect the diversity of Australia"

Millenials love nu "literature" though, trash like this is the new standard for literary merit
