/lit/ - Literature

My vote is for Tartie.

She's not only more pretentious and commonly considered Real Literature, but she's also a lot older, and therefore deserves less understanding for her shortcomings.

Also, she writes like shit. Considerably worse than Rooney.

They don't look alike at all but Donna wins the title.

How about the entire The Goldfinch? 800 pages of examples. Just open it at a random point.

It boggles my mind that she's been compared to Dickens.

I want to stick my penis in Donna Tartt but not in Rooney so i guess Donna wins

>>19186714
Tartt is a much better writer.

>>19186714
There is not a single good picture of Donna Tartt to jerk off to

I find Rooney’s self righteous dislike for Yeats really annoying. She dislikes him for being a fascist.

While I have my criticisms of Yeats as well for his political beliefs (I thought his fascism far too mild mannered) I still have a great live for his poetry.

She's shit. I've only read The Goldfinch but my God, what a huge pile of forgettable, bland shit. What a worthless read.

Agreed. Read this recently on the topic and liked it:

Rooney is a fucking idiot. Idiots can't contextualize authors into their historical period, can't distinguish between an author's personal flaws and their work, can't do shit except like what their propaganda told them to like and hate what it told them to hate.

The funny thing is that Rooney and her cohort of rabid tankies who fancy themselves sophisticated communist theorists would've been rabid fascists, had they been born in a well established fascist regime. They're always the most indoctrinated and arrogant individuals, the ones who love to use violence to "educate" people and "correct" their behavior. Shit people all around.

The sad part is that Rooney's drivel is LOVED by contemporary 15-40 women. This says a lot about their quality.

The Secret History is good. The Goldfinch is still better than anything Rooney has written.

>>19187197
Tartt is worse if for nothing else because where Rooney takes 200 pages, Tartt takes 800-1000.

Giving them the classification as “pretentious high brow” is still far too generous. These hacks are more like: “shit writers for dumb people with a superiority complex because they read slightly more than the average citizen”

>>19187231
High brow for low brow people. Meaning: stuff that pretends to be art but is actually pig slop.

>>19186738
honestly, become the statistic right now.

>>19186714
I don't understand why Rooney isn't hotter than she is?

>>19186714
I would give it all for the opportunity to come check on Donna in the afternoon while she writing to bring her a cup of tea and give her a kiss on the cheek after quietly placing it on her desk beside her.

Wtf? One more reason to like Yeats then.
He's great btw.

Why do people like you larp so hard?

Although, I dislike Yeats solely because he was Irish.

The reason they look so similar is because they're both beautiful enough to advance up in the female world of publishing. If they were too ugly, they would get nowhere in life because society hates ugly people.

But they're not too beautiful where other women will get jealous and try to sabotage their careers. Just look at what happened to Billie Eilish when she finally turned 18 and started to show off her beautiful, and massive, breasts. Women started to hate her.
