Ben Brooks thread?

Anybody else planning to read his The Kasahara School Of Nihilism?

http://www.fuguestatepress.com/kasahara.html

>Ben Brooks wants to give us the slightest detail, the smallest nuance, the narrative that teeters on the precipice of understanding and desire. He offers us the human creature in all its frailty and allows us to be one of them without judgement for the briefest of moments

Nope

>alt-lit writer Tao Lin
'Alt-lit' is a buzzword to describe Thai Lynne and his minions. He's described as 'alternative literature,' because he and the fuckwitt neckbeards who enjoy his drivel want to set himself aside from every other form of the written word. There is a deluded belief that his autismal mewling is genre defining, and that being a socially inept, xanax-addicted, dead-pan sperger who writes in a monotone first-person sincerity that ironically parodies itself is new and edgy enough to demand recognition.

They tried with new-autism, that didn't stick. Then came new-sincerity, stolen from the music scene, that didn't stick either. Now 'alt lit' is the flavour of the month, and these insufferable cretins believe they are part of a literature revolution that rivals the beats or realism, because the popularity of social media means they can masturbate to his twitter feeds while convincing themselves that King Sperger himself is relevant.

>Georgia Treely is in my Psychology class. I want to have a sexual relationship with Georgia Treely but I can’t because she believes in Jesus and her mum shops at Waitrose. The best I can hope for is teenage rebellion against the values of her home environment. If ever this happens I will offer myself up as a medium for revolt. When my penis enters her vagina she will be thinking of how much she hates her mum and how unreasonable her curfews are.
Oh wow.
