Because it's written by a tranny NEET with rich parents, and he's desperate for attention, but will never rise above this sorry imageboard.
Also, the writing quality is pre-first-draft.

I found an excerpt online. I lasted 2 pages before giving up.
The sheer amount of basic spelling/grammarpunctuation errors, and the sloppy construction, prevented me from going any further.

If you had any class whatsoever, you'd contain your shilling to /wwoym/ and maybe /wg/ , and would stop spamming the /lit/ forum directly.
But you have no class, and your rich parents can't buy you any.

I enjoyed CotC more than the other “meme books” I see posted on this board. Reading through it was entertaining as fuck. As opposed to Infinite Jest or Gravity’s Rainbow which were just brutally boring. CotC is fun because of how schizo and baffling it was. Pic related.

We must agree that gardner actually accomplished a work of art while other just sit down all they a criticize his books. I actually had to put in the effort and I am proud of what came out of my own merits. You can easily notice his book arose from effort and careful study of the western canon.

As usual, Gardner, you completely miss the point.
"Samefagging" is when someone replies to their own post, pretending to be a different person.
No post you linked to is doing that.
OTOH, when you pretend to be several people that think your books aren't a waste of electrons, that's samefagging.
