> It seems like you struggle with the (admittedly hazy) expression.
>I don't mean fancy prose, or prose with prosody. Rather, I mean writers who, in their prose writing, confer on the reader that sense of aesthetic enrichment that is irrespective of plot, and achieved through beautiful word choice and combinations, most often found in poetry, narrative or non-narrative.

>has anyone else noticed all shills have the same posting style and 2017 twitter tone and mannerisms that imitate 4chan but in a sanitized way
>>DYEL? Chinlet. Post arms

> I’m not trying to embarrass you but I am a poet laureate in a western country, with publications in the most eminent magazine, Poetry Magazine.
>Sorry but you really have no case here. Your critical powers are lacklustre and you’re certainly a loser

>Film is closer to short stories or poetry

>High IQ polymath here with an insatiable desire for deepest intellectual insights. Coming from a STEM background I've read almost all masterpieces of world literature. I also read almost all philosophical works, which to my big disappointment turned out to be utterly trivial. I am now looking for new material to satisfy my need for intellectual stimulation.

>It's just a quantity of big words without even any poeticism
>I can count like 3, admittedly good, passages in the entirety of what I've thus far read

>This is so poorly written and ambiguous. Are you saying recessed chin people who say DYEL think this or that recessed chin people who don't lift are the ones who think this? I assume the latter since the /fit/lit/ crowd seem to endlessly demonstrate their inability to grasp and comprehend language but I really can't tell. Either way, AI has already outdone you and you should have been replaced from this board by it years ago

>You watch avant-garde films and listen to avant-garde music. You had a period where you tried to get into theater. You look down on brand name beers and liquors. Possibly wear glasses. You actually read

>This film won the Palm d'Or. The highest European prize as far as cinema is concerned. It's a classic in the same way Chandler or Dostoyevsky are classics. It's not marred one bit by what kind of people like it

I'm looking for a book Nick Mullen mentioned on the podcast some years ago. It was written by a norwegian/danish/swedish guy and was quite long and semi autobiographical. I think it was written in the 90's or early 2000's can someone help a brother out?

>Easy now, Cletus. I was just asking. Did your great grandpa buck-break many basketball Americans btw? I heard they do things a liiiiiiittle bit different down there.

>I think most people who read indie books do because they’ve already read all the mainstream drivel and are looking for actually unique literature. Enjoy your Harry Potter and Game of Thrones and stay in your comfort zone if you don’t want to read books you won’t find assigned in schools.

>This book is genuinely fantastic

>Is Trump an example of a Baudriallardian hyper real image? In that he became president by presenting an overcharged image of the American ego en large
