Perfume is a weird book. I read it all in one day, it was entertaining, but the ending was retarded.

Damn. As if I needed more stuff to add to my reading list. I am at 200+ now.

Now I know what to avoid. Anything this untalented effeminate liked must be trash.

>>23259076
Post the list so we can help you getting rid of the mid shit.

>Dante and Shakespeare
>trash
lol ok contrarian

Do heroin addicts really read a lot? He was high out of his mind 24/7, he probably just heard about people reading this stuff or maybe just skimmed them.

>>23259057
>Thoughts?
Good thing he died in his 20s because he never grew out of being a teenager.

>>23259057
I'm not surprised by anything I read in the article.

>>23259099
He did his reading as an edgy teenager in between smoking weed under overpasses and having sex with mentally stunted latchkey braphogs.

Is it true he was killed by his wife?

>Kurt "retard fucker" Cobain

Most of the ones I've known read a lot. I'm not going to romanticize addiction but the image of the addict is skewed and many of them are intelligent and sensitive, which probably leads to the drugs as much as similar childhoods do. Someone made a thread in /co/ and got ripped for watching cartoons instead of doing drugs and reading indie comics with other degenerates as a teenager. The lit circles aren't much different.

Of course this emo fag would like Catcher in the Rye.

>>23259321
It's insane that some people don't realize this is just a short story he wrote, every single person from his hometown will confirm this never happened

>>23259490
Salinger fought at D-Day and helped liberate Dachau, he was more of a man than you will literally ever be.

>>23259987
Sounds like cope coming from someone who idolizes a retard fucker to me.

>>23259057
I like Nirvanas music but I don’t like Kurt as a person. He would never survive in the manosphere dominated zoomer zeitgeist. I’m old enough to remember when Kurt died, showing my age here.

>>23260297
On that subject can you imagine him and Andrew Tate berating each other on social media? I don’t like Tate all that much either but it would be hilarious to witness.

>>23260305
He'd probably be just as bad as the broad who inspired him to write Smells Like Teen Spirit (there's even a trannie in her band): https://youtu.be/vLGFyxAP0QE?si=Afyh1zIG4xHKsmqB

>>23259057
Why did he like paglia (feminist anti feminist) but also the scum manifesto

>>23260297
I was 17 when he died I liked them well enough but thought Kurdt was overrated. I was more a Soundgarden fan.

>>23259297
Well, he tried to commit suicide by pill overdose a month before the shotgun finished him, and the last time he was with Kris Novaselic (the bassist he founded the band with), he punched him out because he *really* didn't want to go to rehab, and when he got back to town, he had his buddy Dylan Carson buy him the shotgun that was used the next day, so you tell me

>Three Novels: Malloy, Malone Dies, The Unnameable by Samuel Beckett

Oddly inconsistent selections. Had a few musically complex tunes showing some depth/originality. Mixed druggie bag all around it would appear.

>nee Harrison
His wife was a nepo-baby industry plant with deep Old Hollywood connections and stood to lose millions in the divorce Cobain had spoken about pursuing with multiple 3rd parties.

Super weird then that she would save his life when he tried to overdose in Rome one month before

>>23260239
Wasn't talking about Salinger the man, was talking about the emo moody fags (like Cobain) who brooded over his glorified YA book and get inspired by it to commit acts of violence like killing John Lennon.

>>23260509
Does he honestly strike you as someone with well thought out beliefs?

>>23260667
Do well thought out beliefs even matter? Well thought out or not, few people are open to changing their beliefs

>>23260662
John Lennon was a phony though.

>>23260680

>>23259099
Plenty of great writers were opium users which is a poppy drug nearly as strong. And Burroughs of course was a heroin addict

>>23260671
>Do well thought out beliefs even matter?
Yes.

It's on my Goodreads.

ignore the 'with'

>>23259057
man u can see his face he would have been fucking ugly as an old man lmaooo

>>23260286
I don't idolize Cobain, but you're a fool if you think that story is true, it's just Kurt writing a story lambasting his hometown he hated, the title of the story in his journal is "Aberdeen"

>>23262019
>absolutely no proof of what he's saying
It's literally presented as true by the authoritative documentary about his life. Again, this just sounds like cope from a guy who idolizes a retard fucker.

>>23261990
?

>>23259099
He was a songwriter so it doesn't surprise me if he was an avid reader.

What's the source on these? I only heard of a few from Heavier Than Heaven.

>>23265111
>source right there in the OP
>”what is the source??”
Smartest board

>>23260680
wrong

>>23265135
>Gathered from biographies, interviews and his personal journals
The link does not provide sources. It just gives you a list of books.

>>23259057
The intern at MTV who come up with this list for them had good taste.
