Who are the two between Joyce and Pynchon and the one to Pynchon's right

Someone said that was Delillo on the left, but it doesn't look like him

This pic is fake. James Joyce looks like he's still trying to understand whatever joke was made... when I'm pretty sure he'd be the first one to laugh.

DFW is laughing at his own joke, the others are laughing at him, Pinecone is remembering why he was a recluse, Joyce is pic related trying to squeeze out a fart-tune.

How is Tao Lin postmodern

I don't know I haven't read him that's why I'm asking how his writing is postmodern

It isn't. It's just shit. Anon (20) read his book. He then went to the cafe and ordered a raspberry coffee, medium. He opened gmail and asked his friend "do you want to read taos book"? His friend, Namefag (22), said "No. Would you like to come do some MDMA at my apartment" "Okay" "Okay" he said, grinning.

I don't know if you're referring to in general which doesn't have a real answer or the fact that I was showering and not on the board for a little while because it's actually possible to post more than once in a day without mainlining the website into my veins. Thanks for asking!

He does kind of stick out doesn't he? With that silly grin of his

>> No.5494435

well joyce is a modernist and the rest are postmodernists for starters

also david foster wallace tries to do a thing called new sincerity which makes him different from, say, thomas pynchon - who writes books about magic boners and weed

>> No.5495454

Neither of those are right.

Joyce is the only one with actual talent and is thus displeased for being associated with a bunch of idiots.
