Cmon, her Nobel was a diversity award, she's just an average "history of my people" writer, as are most nobels except Bobby's which is a kike award. I've nothing against her, she's actually an enjoyable read, but she's no Joyce

Dunno man, Greeks aren't Slavic but we still love them, even though they are greedy tzintzars

Well not really though, orthodox churches are pretty close to each other, we just don't have a universal pope above us to be a slave to. We are all brethren. Except Bulgarins, nobody likes them

About what?

Actually, you are lucky because now you wont have the same complex as liberal arts majors. Read some Tesla to get hyped about engineering and science

The only Asian languages worth learning are Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese and Sanskrit. But who cares about all these

She says that 'us' vs 'them' is a cheap gag in the same paragraph she uses 'we' as in we black people. I don't know why she's pandering to American niggers, I guess it's her tribal brain choosing a side.
She's the perfect "conscious" liberal. I listened to a podcast with her the other day, where they talked about Trump and Brexit and how older people are mostly to blame for Brexit because they were nostalgic in a way a black woman can't afford to be nostalgic for the past (her example was 1942 America) and then in the same podcast she was being nostalgic about the '90s well guess what my country was at war back then. Fuck yes older people are nostalgic for the times without niggers and arabs, but mixed race people live in dreamlands.
In the podcast she also talked about how she doesn't ler her daughter watch tv shows for teenage girls or read girl magazines and then she had a "I am a feminist with all my heart but what am I really saying to her though? That girls are stupid? We need to find a way to make feminine not humiliating" moment.
Bitch feminists are the ones that are making the feminine humiliating.
This woman went to Cambridge ffs and she can't get past her skin colour. The only reason she's famous is because she's getting diversity awards, which is why I respect Houellebecq all the more.
As Camille Paglia said, artist in the past had something to lose, now they are getting awards and being reviewed in the NYT. You can tell by the awards and the reviews who is writing something important for this day and age and who is a """""writer"""""

I would love to witness a conversation between Byron and Shakespeare

can someone post a screenshot of that post about reading in public, looking into the distance if you read something deep and after finishing the book throwing it in the bin and spitting on it or something like that

Cause they are basically continental Celts cucked by the gipsy Romans, unlike your insular Celts cucked by the white Anglo. Choose who to be cucked by wisely.

Art only comes to life with an audience.
In literature, a reader's interpretation (whether legit or dumb) is what finishes the work.
It does matter if you are able to write a play that would pass as Shakespeare today. He wrote for an audience of his time and place fully aware.

Why are then Vikings acknowledged as invasive barbarians and Muslims as peaceful refugees?

Fuck the Bible and the middle ages, it's like humanity just didn't exist for 10 centuries, paganism and "rebirth" have all the answers

I actually agree. I have a friend that lives in a small room with no windows full of useless shit all over, two beds and no working desk, NEVER cleans it so the door has to be open at all times in order to be able to breathe. The one white wall you can see is blank. And the friend is always on the edge of losing it. Clean space, clean mind, no joke. By cleaning I mostly mean throwing out 90% of shit that's just there for no reason

Our guy Harold Bloom said it best: It's the screen. As long as you're addicted to moving pictures of any kind, you won't ever find the patience to read. Just take your time, read as slowly as you can, ponder on it, and most importantly, picture what you read in great detail.
