haw! haw! for those who, not being 'in the know', interpret the cloying condescension of this poster as sincere -- think again: he has in fact constructed a clever parody. are there any poc characters in tarr? no. but only a leadenly literal mind would count such a fact against the wit and pertinence of the jest.

I have, and it's alright: I appreciate the idiosyncrasies of his style, but besides that it was less modern (or avant-garde perhaps) than I was expecting. Read away quite nicely all the same.

I read it and didn't like it much. Kind of awkward stylistically, and not as intense or aggressive as I was hoping. His memoir Blasting and Bombardiering is a fun read.

I wish Hemingway wrote some more comedic stuff. He made me laugh out loud a few times unexpectedly
