This was so, so much better than Infinite Jest.

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 18:34:49 2020 No.16405744 Did you cry when you closed it?

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 18:45:20 2020 No.16405810 >>16405744 I didn't. Should I have cried?

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 19:34:04 2020 No.16406144 I fucking hate alfaguara's edition of bolaños book. Should I just get the spanish us edition?

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 20:28:00 2020 No.16406503 This book made me cry

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 20:29:18 2020 No.16406517 >>16404981 Dropped it after the professor and his daughter, should I continue?

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 21:17:53 2020 No.16406844 >>16406144 Debolsillo también lo editó.

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 21:23:03 2020 No.16406878 >>16406517 yes. its one of the greatest literary experiences ive ever had.

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 20 23:17:40 2020 No.16407558 >>16406844 Es la misma perra pero revolcada. Las ediciones de Anagrama eran feas pero tenían su encanto. Las de Alfaguara/debolsillo/santillana/penguinrandomhouse son simplemente mediocres.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 02:45:35 2020 No.16408411 >>16404981 Nah, IJ is better, but it is not really worth comparing. 2666 would have been a complete failure if it had been released in 5 parts as he wanted.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 04:37:18 2020 No.16408840 >>16406517 last part is by far the best, starts a bit slow too

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 08:02:39 2020 No.16409444 I'm like halfway through the first section and really bored. I don't care about the slut and the wheelchair guy and the two simps. When does it get good?

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 08:52:19 2020 No.16409684 >>16406517 >>16409444 If you dropped it by those points, then I don’t think you would get a lot out of trying again. It’s not a book that suddenly “gets good” if you didn’t already like it in the first place.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 08:55:39 2020 No.16409699 >>16409444 Maybe The Fault in our Stars is more suitable for you

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 10:59:17 2020 No.16410302 I have the 20th Anniversarry Edition of Infinite Jest; did they censor the word "nigger" with "niger?"

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 11:04:26 2020 No.16410335 >>16409684 I dunno man, those academics are kind of set up to look like ineffectual idiots compared to all the shit that does go down

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 11:56:27 2020 No.16410664 I only read the first two sections and have since taken a break so long I forgot what I thought about them. I need to pick this back up soon

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 12:08:33 2020 No.16410738 >>16407558 El contenido es el mismo, además la de Alfaguara viene con algunos manuscritos al final, no sé qué más querés. La calidad de la encuadernación no es la mejor, pero tampoco es tan terrible.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 12:10:17 2020 No.16410750 >>16409444 lol. not loving that first part. what a fucking retard can you actually be

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 12:12:08 2020 No.16410770 >>16404981 I enjoyed the Professor part and his autistic geometric drawings of philosophers.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 12:13:44 2020 No.16410780 I can speak and write Spanish but have never read a Spanish language novel. Is this a bad first read?

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 12:15:43 2020 No.16410797 >>16410780 It's a lot easier than reading Don Quixote in Spanish.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 15:07:26 2020 No.16411878 are there really abridged versions of it? what do they cut out?

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 21 15:13:07 2020 No.16411919 >>16410302 No. DFW is emphasizing the fact that niggers can’t spell correctly.
