no him but the final 50 or so pages are abysmal. The scene with the doctor who wants a war hero plane crash survivor to drop dead, and the nice nurses who just want everyone to live, and the two maternity ward doctors walking around dresden who chose not to have kids and he breaks the 4th wall to tell you to consider the symbolism. It really is dogshit

There are a few anons here that post this on a nearly daily basis because it is one of the few books they have read and they have nothing better to with their lives.

I never said you were one of the few but your defensiveness suggests that you are and I hit the nail on the head.

Kafkatrap (plural Kafkatraps)

I know what kafkatrapping is and there are explanations which I would have accepted, that was not one of them. Accusing people of kafkatrapping is almost always the kafkatrap.

And before you whine about me accurately calling you a redditor with a reddit account, it's because you're defending this shit book with a kafkatrap and saying NO-U, not because I'm going to keep accusing you of being a redditor no matter what you say. I'm now also going to leave the thread to entirely rob your of any pathetic opportunity to keep screamin, NO U!!!!! Like I know you're preparing

I did not defend the book once. Nor did I say "No-U, I just elaborated upon the use of kafkatraps since that anons definition left out one of the most common uses. You have great reading comprehension.

>>18155482
Everything is a kafkatrap once you see something as a kafkatrap. They would know this if they had read more than just one book.

What do you expect when most high school reading lists are arranged by suburban housewives who think war is edgy. I'm so glad I read this shit instead of Thomas Mann in high school.
