>>	Anonymous Thu Jun 13 15:16:15 2019 No.13291872 >>13291780 Man, just read Pynchon instead. He was here yesterday, even posted some of his private correspondence.

>>	Anonymous Thu Jun 13 15:44:03 2019 No.13292004 The book is good and he writes about posting here in that book.

Yes. He used to post here very early on when 4chan was totally different.

It's Tao's best novel so far. It's pretty good if you like 80's minimalism. He did a good job bringing that aesthetic into the aughts.

I don't think it's a great novel but it's not a promising one.

>>	Anonymous Thu Jun 13 19:34:51 2019 No.13293361 >>13292481 is this Pynchon writing about V? do you have the context for this?

>>	Anonymous Thu Jun 13 19:36:48 2019 No.13293372 it felt stylistically repellant at first. but about twenty pages into reading, my girlfriend and I broke up rather suddenly, and the prose became kind of hypnotic and only amplified the sort of millenial-ennui trying to find love themes.

>>	Anonymous Thu Jun 13 20:47:17 2019 No.13293752 >>13293361 It is indeed, but I have no context for it. Someone posted it in a V. thread a day or two ago, got a few replies, but never responded to them. This is the first time I've seen it, I wish the poster would elaborate on it.

>>	Anonymous Thu Jun 13 21:05:34 2019 No.13293856 >>13293752 yeah, it was really cool to read even without the context. i should try to track down more of pynch's letters, he has had such an interesting career and legacy that i'm curious to hear him reflect on it more

Tao, can you please tell Megan I'm sorry? I came here from shitty boards and assumed all the astroturfing and chat room-coordinated shitposting was rampant here too. I said things I shouldn't have. She's one of the good guys. I wish her the best and love her work.
