We're having a /lit/ meetup in Boston.

Email bostonliterature at gmail if you're interested & I'll give you the place & time.

>Why?

If you've been to university organizations, reading groups, or hung out in a cafe up here, you've noticed the stifling eggshell-walking culture. And also that no one reads /lit/ books.

>What?

Something in the vein of Emerson's Transcendental. Discussion, critique, &c.

Wow, counted and have only read 28 of those...
Also, though, I dig Shakespeare, Marlowe, Jonson, GKC, Wolfe, JRRT, C.S. Lewis, HPL, REH, Hearn, Burton, Dickens, Dikkens (the well known Dutch author), Wodehouse (one of the most unerappreciated writers, cannot understand how Bloom did not include him in the Canon!) Jno. Myers Myers, Arthur Byron Cover, Alexei Panshin, and of course Potocki...

/lit/ beware, last time I went to BLM the guy who organizes it followed me home. I almost didn't notice at first because he was pretty far back, but he was definitely following me.

I lost him by going into a bar I knew and calling an Uber to pick me up but it was really scary for a second there. If you go to BLM make sure you don't go alone.
