>>11611320
Most Jews, blacks, and women
Woolf
Ellison
Proust
Kafka
Austen
the list goes on

>>11611324
You forgot most boomers, zoomers and millenials. You also forgot anyone who is not a Baptist.

>>11611320
Patrick Rothfuss

>>11611320
Heidegger

>>11611320
pynchon, gaddis, all burger shit

>>11611320

Jack Kerouac

>>11611595
He's the King amirite

>>11611320
Robert Jordan

>>11611595
dude wrote so much he had to use a pen name once he had made it as an author *just so he didn't oversaturate the market*! And I have to disagree. A lot of his stuff may not be your cup of tea, but "The Shining" and a lot of his other works were masterpieces of horror.

>>11611635
>dude wrote so much he had to use a pen name once he had made it as an author *just so he didn't oversaturate the market*

Was that really the reason, though?

>>11611320
Ezra Pound
John Steinbeck
"The Beats"
D.H. Lawrence
Joseph Heller
William Faulkner
Aldous Huxley
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Joseph Conrad
E.M. Forster
Robert Graves
Sylvia Plath
Kurt Vonnegut
William Golding
James Baldwin
Henry Miller
Norman Mailer
Ernest Hemingway
etc...

All of these writers are shit, but boomers and Gen-Xers swear by them.

>>11611324
get out bugman

>>11611654
Adding John Updike to this list

>>11611654
Why do you think Poumd and Fsulkner are hacks?

>>11611654
I agree with everyone but Faulkner

>>11611654

>Faulkner

Cease existing.

>>11611320

Shakespeare

William Carlos Williams

>>11611654
Faulker is a true artist, though.

Ray Bradbury

>>11611320
Nabokov, Gass, Vollman, McElroy.

The latter three are fairly self-explicanatory. Nabokov is a second-rate Flaubert with nothing to say.

>>11611320
Surprised no one has said DFW yet

>>11611654
So trendy to not like Hemingway and I don't understand it.

>>11612574
Well the only trully great thing hes written is just one chapter

>>11611654
take out faulkner and hemingway and we're good

>>11612573
he goes without saying, because he's the biggest hack of all.

just so we're clear... what makes a writer a hack?

all writers are hacks except my diary

>>11611320
lol noice bro

>>11611324
Ellison and Kafka? Man, tough crowd here.

>>11611366
You aint wrong kiddo

>>11611584
lol u mad

>>11611654
*cringe*

>>11611704
fair game

>>11613253
guaranteed you've never read a single novel he's written

>>11612569
Where does this Nabokov is like Flaubert repeat track come from? I don't see it.

>>11611320
Here's the rule: if anti-Semites like an author, that author is a hack.

Every author I don’t like

>>11614176
What do you think the cause of "anti-semitism" is? You are aware that there are and have been for centuries perfectly reasonable reasons for disliking jews and wanting them to stop squatting in your land and bribing your leaders and creating social problems, right? Whoever denies such basic logic is the one whose reading tips others should avoid.

>>11614187
this

>>11614187
>>11614219
>muh logic
The aztecs had logic reasons to sacrifice humans.

>>11611654
Trying way too hard buddy. Bit embarrassing.

>>11614257
Jews are the main group promoting mass immigration into our countries, and they have the nerve to call us names like "anti-semite"? I don't fucking think so. It's getting time for them to go.

>>11614257
>le aztecs
logic BTFO

>>11614257
>immediately turn to extreme comparisons
okay, brainlet

>>11614125
Have you read Flaubert?

>>11612883
if I don't like them... there bad!

>>11611320
How is nabo a hack? You might not like his writing but he was genuinely smart and talented. A hack would be someone who postures and poses to gain notoriety

>>11612883
Any individual poster not liking them based on anything, their writing or a thousand other things not related to their writing.

>>11614893
Yes, seems a lot more plain and modern-seeming than the prose in say Lolita.

>>11611584
i dislike a lot of burger works but if u be talkin shit about my friend pynchon we gon have a problem

>>11614176
>>11614187
How does this mindless bickering manage to worm it's way into every thread?

>>11616213
How are supposedly big brained whites on /lit/ still ignorant about the JQ?

>>11611320
DFW, Pynchon and Phillip Roth.

>>11616224
Jq aint literature mang, unless you're talking about CoC, which you could make your own thread for instead of shitting up this one

>>11616230
Literature is a part of culture and all of our literary institutions are controlled by jews. It's more than relevant.

>>11611654
>Hemingway is a hack
>Conrad is a hack
>Faulkner is a hack
Show me a writer with the same syntax prior to ___
Pro-tip: You're a pleb.

>>11616333
please grow up. school can help.

>>11611320
Don't recognise OP pic, who even is it, no file name

>>11611652
Yes, he said how his publisher would only release/market 1 book a year which meant he ended up writing more than could be published in a year, they would publish it and rather than wait he took up his pen name.

>>11616333
And why is that a problem?

>>11616760
Heidegger. german philosopher. died in 1976.

>>11616333
The irony is you'd be screaming like an autist if they were actually diverse too

>>11616769
Why is it a problem that the institutions that inform the white populace have undergone a nepotistic takeover by an alien race with a track record of hostility toward and genocide of their host populations? Really?

>>11616770
Thanks

>>11616822
He's having you on. Why not just reverse image search it?

>>11616821
>alien race
>genocide
America is not a racially homogeneous nation, so the notion that Jews are an alien race is outright preposterous. And they're the victims of genocide, not the perpetrators.

>>11616857
America was an unequivocally white nation until the 1965 jewish Immigration Act, and jews committed the biggest genocide of the 20th century in Russia. They are not victims, they are murderers.

>>11615274
>A hack would be someone who postures and poses to gain notoriety

That's exactly what he did with Lolita and then with his strong opinions.

>>11612569
>a second-rate Flaubert
utterly pointless attempt at an opinion. try again, sugar.

>>11611654
Fuck you. Pound, Hemingway, and Steinbeck are great.

>>11611654
>Ezra Pound
>Aldous Huxley
You shut your whore mouth boy I tell you what

>>11611654
Why E M Forester though? I really like his short fiction.

Me desu

Bukowski is the biggest for me desu

>>11617624
t. triggered anglo nabokovian

>>11617131
lol ok, strong opinions came out way after he was already a highly regarded author. i don't see how lolita is posturing

>>11616857
>Jews are holocaust victims! Jews = holocaust! I learned that in middle school gaise its so basic omg!

>>11620604
he claimed he got the idea by reading about a monkey in a cage in the newspaper...yeah right nabokov

>>11612883
What makes a pseud a pseud?
What makes a hack a hack?
It's self-evident, just like it's self-evident that you're a double-digit IQ moron by your inability to make use of the shift key and mass reply.

>>11611595
His stories are the basis of many kinos tho
