Why don't you start us off? What did you think about it? I assume you've read it
William Davis
Imagine house of leaves written by a more demented person .
Angel Baker
Sounds awful
Jason Myers
Well ,it actually came close to being .
Zachary Rivera
As in, more or less scattered? Not gonna lie, I loved HoL.
Adrian Gray
He uses the same gimicks at first but later he uses them to actually enhance the story much like how Vollmann uses indentation in the Dying Grass.
Thomas Myers
What is it about my man?
David Clark
>A western American writer and his wife navigate the challenges of writing his second novel against the backdrop of the decade after September 11, an effort marked by his observations and desire to authentically capture the period's cultural truth in potential literary venues ranging from pop-up ads and search results to lines of code and television stills.

Veeky Forums already memed me into reading Infinite Jest, I refuse to believe that any recommendations exceeding 1,000 pages from anybody on this site are sincere.
Henry Perez
But user, setting aside the weird images and indentation its barely 800 pages.
Jaxon Jenkins

Christopher Jenkins

Justin Myers

Joshua Phillips
David Cooper

Asher Cox

Oliver Jenkins
I want to get this along Bottom's Dream. I kind of like this weird stuff.
Aiden Murphy
Not gonna lie, looks awfull, I guess he was going for the "ayyy le private detective / string of conciousness / no time to make it look pretty" look, and he succeded in making the img formatting look like absolute shit.
Nathan Watson
Holy shit, that looks like absolute garbage.
Henry Wilson
trees died for this
Josiah Smith
are you the dude one instagram? You and your cronies are one pretentious lot. the community would be much better without your rot.
Christian Gonzalez
Because I don't talk about stuff I haven't read, and my piece of shit library takes like 6 months to process new books
Jack Reyes
What is with this "hurr durr I have to write books over a thousand pages long because I r genious like Pynchon and Wallace" shit? Even someone I personally respect, like Moore, fell for this. Length is not quality (except in sex ... or so I read)
Josiah Ortiz
What Instagram community doesn't suck
Ian Parker
I think I know just what guy you're talking about too, lmao.
Hudson Fisher

Luke Rogers
who's that?
Ian Wright
Yeah they're really judgemental and really only care about obtuse prose.
Adrian Russell
What the fuck!? Veeky Forums has been doing this type of shit for the last 4 years. REEEEEEEEE
Jose Allen
Sounds good, this will really bump my goodreads page count
Jaxon King
Where is some weird shit in his site where you can download the ebook if you submit a word from a page of the book.If you ask me it sounds both retarded and interesting at the same time.

Jackson Thomas
Pynchon did it better in his worst novel
Jordan Robinson
Yeah but McIntosh has cred and a publishing record.
Hudson Russell
Barely
Josiah Baker
I'll give it a shot. I llike dumb experimental shit that plays with more than just the language. And I like supporting risks like this, my guess is it wont sell a whole lot.
Jace Wright
anyone who takes the time to let people know what they're reading, taking pictures of stacks, taking pictures of bookshelves, is a monumental tool and probably seething within over lack of talent.
>WOOOOWEEEE I READ SHIT NO ONE HAS EVEN HEARD OF THAT WAS PUBLISHED BY DALKEY ARCHIVE
Oliver Robinson
I get a lot of recomendations and interesting stuff I've never heard of even in Veeky Forums and I like to get people's opinion on what I read, but yes, there is a lot of pretentiousness and circle jerk just like here in Veeky Forums
