Embarrassing

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:05:09 2019 No.13767455 >>13767349 Agreed. He's a shit poet. It's clear he meant the atrocious poem in Pale Fire to be good but put in the BS meta commentary to hedge his bets. Good thing he did.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:09:46 2019 No.13767470 >>13767457 Literally every other novelist writer that started out as a poet is better. Houellebecq is a much better poet than Nabokov.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:12:22 2019 No.13767486 >>13767455 Yeah, it was kind of clever to hide his mediocrity as a plot device.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:14:57 2019 No.13767494 >>13767470 >Houellebecq

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:18:08 2019 No.13767507 >>13767494 That's correct, Houellebecq is superior to Nabokov as a poet. I'm not even joking.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:31:03 2019 No.13767565 >>13767550 Giga cope and offtopic. His narrative is not the subject here but rather his poetry. Go suck his dick in some other thread.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 5 21:32:49 2019 No.13767575 >>13767556 It's that bad. Nabokov belongs in that category of wannabe poets who better became novelists, like Bolaño.
