/lit/ - Literature

Seriously curious here: does it mean anything? Is there an actual narrative? Is it meant to be open to free-form interpretations? Is it just exploration of stream of consciousness prose? Is its' use of language just meant to create surreal imagery?

The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma.

What does lit think of this Joycean masterpiece?

Who's read it?
I'm looking to get into it soon.

1. You faggots obviously miss the point of literature. Books are not meant to be read, they are self-contained dumps of ironic ideas manufactured by the Author to achieve higher plains of euphoria.

2. Those who actually open them and try to process the text are meant to fail, don't you see? Joyce, people. Joyce knew it all, he was the prophet of true Form. His "Finnegan's Wake" was the most blatant of signs - you are NOT meant to read.

3. True patricians know this fact of life and surpass their earthly coils on daily basis. Step up, faggots. Throw away your literary opium. Sap the Source and absorb the true euphoria.
