Why is he writing a letter to his wife as if it's a page from one of his shitty melodramatic soap opera books?
Did all faggots back then write like this?

Yes, people back then usually took more time to compose letters, rather than the current time it takes people like you to compose shitposts on anonymous imageboards.

>Did all faggots back then write like this?
Just the faggots like Fitzgerald.

>My sweet little whorish Nora,

>I did as you told me, you dirty little girl, and pulled myself off twice when I read your letter. I am delighted to see that you do like being fucked arseways. Yes, now I can remember that night when I fucked you for so long backwards. It was the dirtiest fucking I ever gave you, darling. My prick was stuck up in you for hours, fucking in and out under your upturned rump. I felt your fat sweaty buttocks under my belly and saw your flushed face and mad eyes. At every fuck I gave you your shameless tongue come bursting out through your lips and if I gave you a bigger stronger fuck than usual fat dirty farts came spluttering out of your backside. You had an arse full of farts that night, darling, and I fucked them out of you, big fat fellows, long windy ones, quick little merry cracks and a lot of tiny little naughty farties ending in a long gush from your hole. It is wonderful to fuck a farting woman when every fuck drives one out of her. I think I would know Nora’s fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women. It is a rather girlish noise not like the wet windy fart which I imagine fat wives have. It is sudden and dry and dirty like what a bold girl would let off in fun in a school dormitory at night. I hope Nora will let off no end of her farts in my face so that I may know their smell also.

>You say when I go back you will suck me off and you want me to lick your cunt, you little depraved blackguard. I hope you will surprise me some time when I am asleep dressed, steal over me with a whore’s glow in your slumbrous eyes, gently undo button after button in the fly of my trousers and gently take out your lover’s fat mickey, lap it up in your moist mouth and suck away at it till it gets fatter and stiffer and comes off in your mouth. Sometime too I shall surprise you asleep, lift up your skirts and open your hot drawers gently, then lie down gently by you and begin to lick lazily round your bush. You will begin to stir uneasily then I will lick the lips of my darling’s cunt. You will begin to groan and grunt and sigh and fart with lust in your sleep. Then I will lick up faster and faster like a ravenous dog until your cunt is a mass of slime and your body wriggling wildly.

>Goodnight, my little farting Nora, my dirty little fuckbird! There is one lovely word, darling, you have underlined to make me pull myself off better. Write me more about that and yourself, sweetly, dirtier, dirtier.

>JIM

okay never mind Joyce is based again

>>14910115
I've read this a hundred times, and I just realized that this is one of the funniest things ever written. Joyce knew EXACTLY what he was doing.

Pretty fucked up thread desu.

>>14910094
What does pic related have to do with Joyce or 'MAGA'?

>>14910105
Rosemary is a fictional character, not his wife. The letter is satirical, not actually written by Fitzgerald.

>>14910094
I think this post was composed by an AI. It's a nice letter, though; old Fitzgerald had a good sense for what comes off well, what sounds nice, much more than he had any character per se

stop shilling this stupid bullshit already, capital deceleration can't stop capital acceleration

>>14910115

Wait

>At every fuck I gave you your shameless tongue come bursting out through your lips

I think Nora was faking her farts

>>14910105
It's excellent writing though.

>. The letter is satirical, not actually written by Fitzgerald.
It's a pretty great parody, especially "the streets are that empty"

LOL

this is fake but Scott was /ourguy/
>according to Sylvia Beach, doyenne of the expat American literary scene in Paris, founder of Shakespeare and Company Books, and publisher of Ulysses, Fitzgerald “worshipped James Joyce, but was afraid to approach him.”
>Beach relates how in 1928 she and her friend, lover, and fellow bookseller Adrienne Monnier, “cooked a nice dinner and invited the Joyces, the Fitzgeralds, and André Chamson and his wife Lucie.”
>Scott drew a picture in my copy of The Great Gatsby of the guests—with Joyce seated at the table wearing a halo, Scott kneeling beside him, and Adrienne and myself, at the head and foot, depicted as mermaids (or sirens). (pic related)
>Fitzgerald---so overawed by the Irish author that he referred to the evening as the “Festival of St. James"---“sank down on one knee before Joyce”—as in his drawing—“kissed his hand, and declared: ‘How does it feel to be a great genius, Sir? I am so excited at seeing you, Sir, that I could weep.’”
>the American “offered to show his esteem for the Irish writer… by jumping out of the window. An amazed Joyce is supposed to have prohibited the display and exclaimed, ‘That young man must be mad—I’m afraid he’ll do himself some injury.’”

he was also a footfag.
>He wouldn't let anyone see his own naked feet, but women's feet made him wild. Apparently he had a particular prostitute he went to who had such lovely feet that he returned to her just so he could see them.

This letter exposed pseuds to me. Nobody ever talks about Bloom's sissy hypno scene in Ulysses

>>14910569
>sissy hypno
wat

>>14910531
Guess I'm gonna read everything he ever wrote now.
Where's the quotation from?

How did he know about zelda

I skimmed this but I didn't see any mention of Joyce

>I told Hemingway. but to that he punched me in the stomach, to which I asked if he had washed his hands. He didn't.
