genre trash for people who claim to hate genre trash

>>20240982
this actually makes no sense

"The Immortals" is a pretty creepy story. He could be creepy when he wanted.

>>20241006
so is "There Are More Things"

>>20240964
what zero pussy does to a mf

I like that. Not creepy. Lovecraftian horror at his best. Why Borges did not wrote in the acapite <<Tyger Tyger...>>? It would be cool. Like the tiger of the poem the creature is unique and and impossible.

And B. like so much that poem.

>>20241006

Yeah. I remember that. Creepy. Yes. I dont like it.

He really embodied his hedonistic reader shtick

Borges is a reddit author. Dilettante who thinks he's smarter than he is because he read some shit at the library.

>>20240964
He was a bookcel himself, the quintessential author for bookish people

>>20245350
If you think Borges was a diletante who wrote surface level stories, you got massively filtered.

>>20245373
Writing long books is a laborious and impoverishing act of foolishness: expanding in five hundred pages an idea that could be perfectly explained in a few minutes. A better procedure is to pretend that those books already exist and to offer a summary, a commentary.

Borges said he wrote surface level stories.

Nigga was an "idea guy", and none of his ideas were that impressive.

>>20245400
Why do you write like a nigger? Are you an actual nigger or just a cringe wigger?

>>20245378

I don't know, but I love him

>>20240982

Reddit author

>>20245425
He's anti-reddit. If only you knew him. He was a contrarian a la 4chan and disliked negroes.

>>20245405
He must be american

>>20245428
Borges is very popular on reddit. Muh labyrinths muh pastiches. He is reddit incarnate

>>20245448
All canonical writers are popular everywhere. Doesn't mean shit.

>Borges said he wrote surface level stories.
lmao how filtered can one man be

>>20245428
>Borges’s opinions of himself and of his peers clearly reflected the common views of his time and his social class. For example, according to Bioy Casares’s diary, Borges saw himself as a white man in “a white man’s country, un país de hombres blancos.” Borges would also proudly defined himself as racist, even as he exoticized others: “Brazil is an exotic place; it is close to us, but we don’t want to visit it … it seems to us like a country of monkeys” (“El Brasil es exótico, está cerca y no queremos ir allí … nos parece un país demacacos”) (Bioy Casares 2010, 516).
I didn't know that. As a brazilian, I feel pretty sad, because at least in part he is right.

Sure he is popular on reddit dude.

>>20240982
He loved his Poe, H. G Wells and Louis Stevenson.

>>20245527

>>20245768
All kino writers. Nabokov also loved Poe and Wells.

Have you ever seen Portugal in a map? it's a quite small country with a equally small population(imagine at that time) and they had a continental country to populate. Result: they impregnated every woman they could regardless of their race or background

>>20245861
they also imported millions of black slaves

>>20245861
Big mistake.
