> missing out on Wuthering Heights, Pimp, Miles Davis' autobiography, Middlemarch, To The Lighthouse, Jane Eyre, Petals of Blood, etc just because of your bigoted view of black people and women

You're literally missing out, anon. I'm not one who gives a shit about diversity but some black people and women have actually written good works.

Whenever I finish a book, I make sure to update my progress on Goodreads with the edition with the most pages so I can inflate my Goodreads stats. If you take my reading progress literally, then yes I am reading an Arabic edition of Hamlet.

that's partly why I don't read this, they tried to force so much feminist anti-racist garbage in school it was disgusting
>>10689597
I have never seen a works by a woman or an afr*can that was not about or from the sole perspective of femininity or race. Now, that's fair enough for women because it's only their nature but neither of these perspectives are of use or interest to the White Aryan Man. I have no regrets about "missing out" on these topics, though I concede that women can write excellent children's books.

Wuthering Heights is genuinely unsettling reading and if you genuinely believe that women and black people can't write, I think Wuthering Heights would make you reconsider regarding the female perspective. It's a brutal, cold, unsettling book where most people have ulterior motives and achieve them through psychological manipulation and passive aggressive actions. It's thrilling, anon.

Also Miles Davis' autobiography offers a lot more insight than you would imagine. Yes, he was a jazz musician who came from a poor background, but his insight into faith, loyalty, family and addiction are genuinely harrowing that, despite your racist views, anon, I think you would find quite engaging.

Neither book takes a feminist perspective or even a particularly politically-correct one (Miles Davis would've been anti-SJW snowflake). They're worthwhile reading and it'd be a shame for you to miss out on good literature just because of somebody's gender or race. Nobody's making a reading list of anti-dead-white-male authors here. Just some friendly suggestions.

Not the anon you responded to, but without giving much away:
Lockwood, a rich visitor to Wuthering Heights is considering renting a nearby home from the landlord Heathcliffe, a callous man who is haunted by his memories of Catherine, a girl he grew up with
> Lockwood meets Ellen, a housekeeper at Thrushcross Grange, the home he considers renting, and she details why Heathcliffe is the way he is - there's a love story in there regarding Heathcliffe and Catherine but it's so drenched in malice and hatred for anything else that blooms that really you're just rooting for them to both drop dead

There's a lot of subtlety in the book that is actually quite fun to pick up on, like the unsaid resentments can be felt more powerfully than the harsh words said.

i've tried. and it's extremely rewarding sometimes. Odysseus negotiating with Achilles at his encampment after the Trojans drive back the Achaeans at the first battle and Agammenon gets desperate for help--probably one of the most beautiful things i've read. The fury and passion of Achilles in rejecting the terms of Agammenon's offer, that's that honor and glory i'm always hearing about that you can only find in Homer, and i've definitely never encountered it outside of that text.

but damn man i can't stay with it. I'm just not a fan of verse, it takes a stamina that i haven't developed.

There are prose editions if the verse gets a bit too dry for you (I know people might be a little snobbish regarding those editions but they're not lesser editions by any measure as long as the translator isn't shit). The Iliad does feel a bit sluggish at the beginning, but if you stick it out to the very end, it's one of the most devastating yet rewarding reads you'll have. Definitely worth the effort.

I thought poetry was a fucking meme until I was 18 or so. No one ever explained to me that it was supposed to be felt not understood, and that it focused on the subliminal aspect of language. I smugly proclaimed it was nothing more than "intentionally jumbled up words" more than once.

Attention span is something you have to develop, many people have trouble focusing for long periods of time because our modern culture has evolved to entertainment in short bursts. Memes, tweets, shitposts on a nepalese tea leaf reading website, they're all low-effort media. You need to build your attention span back up, start by reading a page or whatever you manage, then over time try to push that number up.

As an aside, I think the younger generation are fucked. I've seen some that can't even focus through a marvel movie, which is pretty much as brainless as you can get. How are those people possibly going to succeed in areas that require prolonged, intense focus. I study math, and it can take me half an hour to read a single page in a paper, I don't see someone whose currently 13 being able to do that a decade from now.

This. I know new parents get pissy when you talk about how they shouldn't give their kids phones and tablets to use, but really they shouldn't. When most online media is centred around instant gratification and the shorter the burst, the better, you need to encourage developing minds to focus on something more extra-curricular and productive. Reading, writing, creating, programming, exercise, etc.

Plus, the added concern of kids using tablets and phones should come from how easy it is for kids to spend their parents money on "free" games and to be manipulated by uncomfortable pregnant elsa peeing on hulk videos. As someone who is about to become an uncle, this shit really worries me.

stop being such an annoying faggot

he's already written off women and blacks, what makes you think he'd even admit to enjoying a masterpiece created by them if you bothered him enough to read it?

fuck him, let him rot in the deluded sense of racial superiority he feigns to mask the pain of being rejected by women his whole life

the rest of us will be over here enjoying a good book

I didn't like that book too much, but Zora Neale Hurston was in favor of segregation and didn't write from a place of resentment:

"How It Feels to Be Colored Me:"
> Someone is always at my elbow reminding me that I am the grand daughter of slaves. It fails to register depression with me. Slavery is sixty years in the past. The operation was successful and the patient is doing well, thank you. The terrible struggle that made me an American out of a potential slave said "On the line! " The Reconstruction said "Get set! " and the generation before said "Go! " I am off to a flying start and I must not halt in the stretch to look behind and weep.

You people are fucking stupid. It was a dead meme in /r9k/ that someone /pol/ got ahold of, with /r9k/ trying to use the teehee meme for awhile because of appropriation.

Pepe was a cancerous meme from the start the minute /pol/ took its unused corpse from /r9k/ & noone even realizes its origins as trite on these boards anymore
