>yeah, I read 5 books this month

>>25212200
>read this popular "hard" book with me, a bemulleted zoomer literati. You know I'm a real one thanks to this haircut and shitty mustache combo that all my fellows sport. It's very counterculture and cool

Why did the publisher give up with the engraving-styoe covers after the first 5 books?

>>25212247
>cover to be revealed
read dude

>...This should help to explain why Knausgaard’s heirs are floundering so much in their phenomenological kiddie pools, so much shallower than even Knausgaard’s work.
We see this with Dimes Square scribes, with writers like Honor Levy, Sean Thor Conroe, and Rachel Cusk. The body becomes a sort of selfie moving across a flattened semi-phenomenological plain that really isn’t phenomenological at all. If Knausgaard’s selfie was at least 3D, his heirs are less than two-dimensional.

Dude is just flinging around phenomenology like he actually knows anything about it.

If your book requires more than a full month to read, then it's not any good and I'm not reading it.
>noooo you can't just "speed read" finnegans wake in a month, you gotta take a whole year to really study and immerse yourself in this wet fart of a novel by renowned fart fetishist, james joyce

>>25212247
they're placeholders, but really anyone who stuck with a series for 5 volumes will buy the next one no matter what

>>25212240
So she couldn't keep coming up with goofy names and just started giving the later ones numbers? That doesn't bode well for her creativity

>To read in a punk mode
To treat lightly or with indifference in order to quickly steer the conversation back to revolutionary marxist politics.

Whether this is good or bad depends on your preferences.

Let's retire the phrase "let it wash over me", mmmmmkay.

Why do adults need groups/clubs to read a book? I'll admit I'm a loner and prefer most activities to be done by myself, but things like this exist for only one reason; so the elite fart huffers can lord over the simpletons who desperately want to be part of a scene.

non-reverential to tradition or expected protocol, DIY-adjacent. Its a bit millennial buzzwordy but the term makes sense for what the guy is doing.

How else are basedllenial men supposed to perform amongst their terminally online friends by spouting as their own thoughts some random jstor article on Joyce they read right before the bookclub in order to not appear as a dimwit so Lawton will follow them back on twitter
