You know. They're perpetrating a fraud. And going to prison.

I read 100 pages of the book today, over a few hour period (like a pleb), and didn't understand much. Also, saying this is better than IV or Against the Day is just sad.

There are 670 more pages, sir.

Well look at that, Sunhawk's being a massive pleb. What a surprise.

You probably haven't even read GR. Why pretend otherwise?

A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before, but there is nothing to compare it to now.
.....It is too late. The Evacuation still proceeds, but it's all theatre. There are no lights inside the cars. No lights anywhere. Above him lift girders old as an iron queen, and glass somewhere far above that would let the light of day through. But it's night. He's afraid of the way the glass will fall--soon--it will be a spectacle: the fall of a crystal palace. But coming down in total blackout, without one glint of light only great invisible crashing.
.....Inside the carriage, which is built on several levels, he sits in velveteen darkness, with nothing to smoke, feeling metal nearer and farther rub and connect, steam escaping in puffs, a vibration in the carriage's frame, a poising, an uneasiness, all the others pressed in around, feeble ones, second sheep, all out of luck and time: drunks, old veterans still in shock from ordnance 20 years obsolete, hustlers in city clothes, derelicts, exhausted women with more children than it seems could belong to anyone, stacked about among the rest of the things to be carried out to salvation. Only the nearer aces are visible at all, and at that only as half-silvered images in a view finder, green-stained VIP faces remembered behind bulletproof windows speeding through the city. . . .
.....They have begun to move. They pass in line, out of the main station, out of downtown, and begin pushing into older and more desolate parts of the city.

This is the beginning, I heavent read the rest, but assuming that the level of writing is uniform throughout i'd say that you're a gigantic knob, suncawk, pls die

sunhawk its a fucking dude looking up at some dome of glass thinking about how incoming war will fuck it up and itll come crashing down. there some evacuation which he finds futile and then there's a cut-off to a scene of the evacuation, some people being hauled off in a carriage.
how is this in any way hard?

Self-tricked, I didn't state that there is an infinite number of (equally valid) interpretations, I merely dismissed that there is One True One.

Either way Sunhawk can stop crying about people who 'understand' (have an interpretation) cheating.

>> No.3782581

I think the people who says that Sunhawk is anything other than a complete pleb are just pretending.

You know. They're perpetrating a fraud.

I read 100 pages of his stupid fucking posts every day, and never understand much beyond the fact that he is evidently a gigantic retard. Also, saying that he doesn't deserve to be shut in the face is just sad.

OK, so what is the actual significance of the things that happen in the novel? What does it all mean?
