She's a lesbian

>>12393774
I NEED PROOF

>>12393774
WHY DON’T YOU WOO HER AND MAKE HER STRAIGHT

>>12393798
If I were to woo her I wouldn't be making her any straighter.
She seems rather undersexed or at least extremely shy, but at any rate happy to be alone. I can relate.

Anyone have that pic of her as a teen?

>>12393821
I listen to her to start the day
when I read her, perhaps I’ll hear her
had teacher who wrote the book he assigned, we heard his voice when reading

Gay Greeks like Plato and Socrates counted on erotic yearning by students for their teacher
Start with Tartt

>>12393821
She looks like she needs a dick

Fine. Made me look for it.

If I were to woo her, she'd have to give up cigarettes.
Smokers pussy tastes worse than tart.

>>12394004
WOW
JUST IMAGINE

>>12394047
People quit smoking all the time
??

Smart Tartt

>>12393765

Why does no one ever talk about her essay about being a cheerleader?

>>12395281
This is my first sampling of her work. Thank you anon. Lovely storytelling skills. I may have to pick up something of hers now.

>As I was both too young to be much interested in boys
At fourteen. How convincing. Of course the theme of it is about hiding ones true self.

>>12394004
she cute

>>12395588
try "The Ambush," it's a nice short story by her.

>>12393765
she's def a vixen, I listen to her audio book reading of The Secret History every now and then

Is it weird that I got a boner when it came out that Charles and Camilla were fucking?

This has zero shock value, anon.
You may as well be typing "Homosexual" at me.

>>12395611
Will do. Thank you.

There was a Donna thread a couple days ago and I've been thinking about her everyday since. Shes mesmerizing.
I ended up buying Secret History and Goldfinch

>>12394074
M-mommy.

>>12393765
Imagine being married to Donna Tartt and living on a farm in Virginia together.

>>12395785
But anon, The Little Friend is her best book.

>>12395809
The back cover was 2spooky4me

buncha incels drooling over a writer just because she's attractive

>>12395823
don't be mean

>>12395823
She's very good too.

>>12395823
she's also a pretty good writer. Not a genius but she writes very comfy books with a good mix of adventure, suspense, plot, and literary themes.

>>12395823
>catholic convert
>avoids social media
>reads the classics
Being an attractive mommy OL is just the cherry on top

>>12393765
Let's post our best Donna pics

>>12393765
>>12396037
Donna in pajamas is A CUTE

>>12396037
I think i love her

she looks like she would give very stern but just handjobs

>>12396079
that's hot, what else

>>12393765
This is now a Secret History Aesthetic thread

>>12395240
she's so fucking qt in her charlie rose interview

>>12396108
Keep going.

>>12396090
she looks like she would be cold and mean to you if you distract her while she's writing but then would later come sit on the side of the tub while you're taking a bath and wash you with the sponge

>>12396108

>>12396192
Spot-on. Makes me want to give a good pull on the ole plonk.

>>12396192
yes
YES

>>12396192
Imagine her gently scolding you in her southern accent, telling you how you should know not to interrupt her while she works

is donna living the best possible literary lifestyle one is capable of in 2019?

>short and sweet bibliography, not clogged with dozens of inferior novels
>books are always highly anticipated
>back catalog is a steady seller, always in print
>strong advocate of the classics, has probably done more than any living author to get young people interested in the greeks
>low-key but not totally hermetic, just the right air of mystery
>neither fully reactionary and backwards-looking nor acutely contemporary to the point of frenzy; writes from a grounded and engaging perspective that is wholly her own
>stylish and distinctive appearance (perhaps even iconic, for a modern-day author)
>simultaneously embodies southern charm and metropolitan cool
>won't let the hacks in hollywood touch her books

no one is even close to beating her. only downside might be that her novels lack big-brained important ideas, but her insistence on storytelling above all is another reason why i like her so much

>>12396037

>>12396320
>won't let the hacks in hollywood touch her books
I wish.
She was just upset about not getting to write it herself

>>12396336
that's odd. surely some studio must've attempted to option the secret history by now and tempted her with sole writing credit? seems like a small tradeoff for what is almost a guaranteed success. maybe she wants them hbo/netflix monies

>>12396355
There's a Goldfinch movie in production, WB bought the rights in 2014
https://pagesix.com/2017/11/16/donna-tartt-drops-her-agent-shocks-literary-community/

>>12396365
argh... the betrayal

it is however adapted by the guy who did tinker tailor 2011, so it might turn out pretty good after all

>>12396378
Maybe letting a movie get made is her way of playfully bullying us

>>12396320

Great list. I would also add that she avoids social media.

>>12396060
hands off pal, i'm the one who loves her.

>>12395718
The 'greece' tag really makes it

what a poseur dyke WHORE

dirty she-whore with a untoward CUNT

>>12393765
she writes ya novels lmao

>>12396215

Reminder that she was broken in by none other than Brett Easton Ellis. You read that right. Brett Easton Ellis fucked Donna Tart in all of her holes. Brett Easton Ellis, the hack's hack. Fucked her.

>>12396320
>inferior novels

Are we pretending that Goldfinch's plot wasn't Rowling-tier in the way it played out?

>>12396911
I think the Goldfinch is her weaker book.

>>12396922
I agree, I only liked the avenue sections and the new york section. las vegas was borderline decent. endgame was horrendous.

i still have to read the third novel.

>>12396948
>i still have to read the third novel
Which one?

>>12396954
the one that's not the secret history which i very much liked

i just have to reread it to see if the bunny's funeral part was overdrawn

>>12396906
Hes gay

>>12396979
>gay men cannot put their penises inside of women's vaginas
nigga u dum dum

>>12396898
Plato and Socrates were SuperGayMen and would’ve pounded you doggy style while you exclaimed:
OH, SWEET MYSTERY OF LIFE!

Is there any type of porn you'd like to see her in

>>12396896
Meant to respond to this anon

>Camilla, what are you doing? Julian suddenly dropped the well-thumbed copy of Oresteia he was perusing and peered at her over the landscape of cups and teapots. N-nothing, she muttered and her voice was unusually hoarse. It was autumn, not quite winter yet and there was no reason for her utters to drop as if from a precipice. Henry's eyebrows vaulted over his horn-rimmed glasses, but he said nothing. Finally, just when it seemed that the tension crafted by the remark will dissipate, Bunny stammered. You sound like Charles after late night dormitory session, eh Charlie my good man? - winking at poor dismayed figure wrapped in cashmere - and then he started laughing, booming I should say and I still remember the cavernous echo of his ponderous joy. Camilla was livid; I saw her long fingers grab the much battered copy of Homeric texts as if to finally turn them to shreds, but then Julian's voice floated back to us, as if from a month old rowing trip. There there Mr Corcoran, no need to put it so bluntly; I'm sure our dear Camilla just needs to gargle some warm fluid and she'll be good as new. Now, what Plato says here about the military service...

>>12397040
jokes's on you, i'm a woman.

>>12397245
She has to think about books sometimes, so hard, try working on a farm or in construction you absolute waste of carbon

>>12397046

Donna is NOT for the lewds.
Please everybody who posted unrespectful and scandalous things, delet your posts.

I tried The Secret History after seeing a lot of swooning about it online. Couldn't make it very far, basically a bunch of manic pixie college kids doing dumb-kid things. Are any of her other books better?

>>12395718
Old cute

>>12397371
I read it when I was 15 and I really enjoyed it, not sure I'd love it as much today.

Also, it was my hot, young french teacher in high school that lended me the book.
I had learned by heart some texts from the Thief : The Dark Project cutscenes and sometimes scribbled them on my desk when I was bored. Apparently she read some, found it pretty good and thought I might enjoy the book. I did.

Donna Tart is a snake oil salesman in literary form. She is an advocate for an impossible ideal, impossible because it's so dishonest. She advocates for futile investment in your local diploma mill's humanities department, learning dead languages and useless things that will forever imitate "antique" forms, so her natural habitat is plaster and marble. Well, those stupid enough to follow her example can hope for a career between Barnes and Noble bookshelves, until their shift manager upgrades them to a pseudo barista or something. And even Donna Tart knows that. She could have learned Python, Java, PHP or something but no. Greek and Latin. And for what? Where is the pride in being useless, forever being out of tune with the civilization at large? One Chinaman's effort trumps her life's work when it comes to pure human potential.

>>12397413
If this is not a pasta it should become one.

>>12397413
I laughed

>>12397394
got a pic of the cochonne?

>>12397430
nah, i even forgot her name.
she was there just a year as replacement then moved away.

>>12393774
sorry to break it to you anon, but femme lesbians don't actually exist, only butch ones. And they wouldn't be showing that much cleavage.

Femme "lesbians" are just girls who were abused by men as kids. They are still sexually straight, they just hate men enough to accept rape by a butch lesbian as a form of protest.

>>12397475
You're confused.

>>12397509
feel free to give an alternative mechanism for lesbianism. Butch lesbianism is explainable via enlarged animus in a woman. femme lesbianism isn't, since there is no difference between a woman with an enlarged animus and a man, hence no incentive for a feminine (anima dominated) woman to be lesbian without prior negative experience with men. Same goes for gays, with the qualifier that there are probably more men genetically or environmentally predisposed to be anima dominated (femme fags)

>>12397475
based and redpilled

>>12397525
HAHAHAHA
Have you been reading Freud? Is that what this is?

>>12397531
shut the fuck up you snarky bitch. Time to upgrade your model of human behaviour. Lesbianism (and faggotry) can be a reference to behaviour, or a reference to an existential state. If a subject partakes in the first without possesing the second, they are not authentic or "real" in their lesbianism. I am proposing that lesbianism can only exist as an existential state for butch dykes and equivilently for femme fags. Femme dykes and butch fags partake in faggotry as a behaviour, but are not describably existentially as fags because they are reacting to a negative experience rather than an aspect of their own base self.

I suck cocks

>>12397563
>Doubles down on his confusion
>I am proposing...
I don't care.

>>12397574
Shut up

>>12397579
Go back to r3ddit then you confused dyke nigger

>>12396240
I don't think she can be satisfied by weak dick lit posters. This bitch needs an animal ( nigger,slav) with a low iq & a large cock to destroy her ego by making her squirt & shit herself as she cums violently. All her literary thoughts would (in time) leave her body in the form of half a dozen babies. That'll satisfy her core womanhood, and she'll be content at last.

>>12397587
yeah, you see this is what you should have replied with in the first place instead of chiping out. It's possible that this bitch is indeed a butch lesbian, and I may have mis-classified her.

>>12397597
sounds rather randian

>>12397599
You're the one chimping out. I just can't be bothered explaining what homosexuality is to some Freud reading troll turd. Go ask /lgbt/

>>12397607
In Hindi, "randi" means a whore.

So in a sense it is randi-an.

>>12397616
I hope your pretending to be retarded enough to confuse jung with freud

>>12397624
Is that where the UK got that.

>>12397597
I am the man for the job. I have always taken pride and been aroused by the sight of my strong, unshaven, pulsating penis

>>12397631
I haven't read either

>>12397636
They're common knowledge in the west anon.

>>12397645
Ah yes, everyone can talk about Jung over here. If you go to any bar between Aaberdeen and Nicosia, you'll overhear heated discussions about the nature of the unconscious, and men glassing those who dare refute the existence of archetypes

>>12393765
While she doesn’t write about huge, big brain ideas, I appreciate Donna Tartt’s love for classic story telling. I bet she really likes people like Charles Dickens, Alexandre Dumas, and Mark Twain. She writes with a great literary style, uses a diverse vocabulary, and seems to be pretty good at building suspense and creating a feeing of wonder in her works. She’s like a patrician pulp writer of sorts. Secret History and Little Friend were lots of fun.

>>12397636

go the fuck away.

>>12397563
pseud babble

>>12397709
If it's pseud babble then you can easily refute it.

>>12397709
Hot. Who’s this?

>>12397722
nice digits, turbo fag

>>12397776
idk bro

Donna Tart is a physically attractive woman. However intellectually she is a child. Further, she tries to adopt the personality of a serious thinker.

This makes the idea of inseminating her so alluring. Our body craves sexual dominion over an attractive physique. Our mind craves evolutionary dominion over a child. Our masculinity wants to shatter her fraudulent mask & free the hidden feminine nudity.

This is why she is such an ideal sexual partner. This isn't about making love. This is about making freedom.

I want her to free me from my intello-masculine insecurities while I deliver her from bondafes of feminism to the freedom of feminity.

>>12397886

>>12398068
I really, really like this picture

>>12399636
This is relevant to my interests.

Shitty moderation allowing some sperg to fuck up the thread with idiotic images. There was a nice idea to have some Secret History "related" pictures and now that's gone.

i UNIRONICALLY want to give this protestant wench a turn on the old latin seedbag if you know what i mean. her tightly clenched jaw and square skull looks exactly like so many frustrated european thinkers from centuries past. i want to enlighten the broad with the real philosophy.

She's 5'0" tall, or as she herself put it, exact same height as Lolita
