Because it is memeable.

perhaps it takes a renaissance hero to figure that one out

Redpill me on this, Waldunchads… I fear I may be too ignorant to understand the genius at play here.

what do you hate about the author?

>>19001980
why? in what way is it better? what did you dislike about this book?

meme shit like this reduces your capacity for understanding and lessens your openness which in turn lessens your intelligence. Irony wont protect you but it will laugh at you

There are a million literal whos publishing their shitty novels through print-on-demand, including multiple people on my rarely-checked facebook wall. I don't see why this one in particular deserves multiple posts every single day on this subreddit.

that's why I made this thread. From afar the author seems like an intelligent person with a rudimentary understanding of the things his writing about. But then again it could be a work of genius

This author is retarded and a pseud. The only reason why he gets any attention at all is because he's what other pseuds aspire to be, a person with no understanding, who only cares about the aesthetics, and a laughingstock everywhere else.

memes have a life of their own don't they. why is waldun elevated to the position he enjoys? probably some combination of racism, his transparent and cringeworthy attempts to cultivate an 'intellectual' personal aesthetic, his awkward command of English and its juxtaposition against the highbrow trappings of his writing, his relatively large reach online etc. etc.
in any case not really worth concerning oneself with if ones objective is to actually discuss and enjoy literature, rather than to participate in internet badger-baiting.

I agree. But one must not be too quick to dismiss based on a authors faults when the author makes faults which are so characteristic for people his age. Do you have any thoughts on the book itself?

>> No.19002208

>>19002193
i have only read excerpts of his work. i do not intend to read a full novel. young people do not write good books in general and in particular they do not write good books in a second language.

>> No.19002243

>>19002208
Fair enough. This is usually true for a first work as well.

>> No.19003021

Because it's a weird meme book. Like Call of the Crocodile or Infinite Jest.

Yeah, looks like you may be part of the target demographic. For anyone that is literate, the answer is "it's not."
