Would you read a book written by someone who hasn't read the classics / doesn't have respect for the established canon? It seems like there's been a recent increase of young guys that think their novella will be praised on its own merits alone even though they're essentially literary newfags.

If they don't read, it'll show immediately in a really ugly fashion. Just like with beginner poets.

One can only break the rules, when one knows the rules.

No classics, no read.
