What a fucking fraud
Hunter S. Thompson, Melville, Hemingway, John Williams and McCarthy were the only American writers I read last year and one thing you yanks do is achieve a nice tone of melancholy. Lovely melancholy.
Shut up faggot
Europe has been doing philosophy for 2500 years. Why havent they been able to produce a philosopher that rivals this man?
Why has nobody heard of him

Oh god no stop it plz
America produces a lot of good things. Philosophers aren't one of them
hello pseuds

Virtually every well-read American is familiar with those names. Don't act like they're obscure. All your little list here suggests to me is that you're familiar with Harold Bloom and don't have any opinions of your own.

>thinking anyone outside this board gives a shit what bloom thinks
Not everyone has shit taste like you and requires some boring academic to spoon-feed them
Oh okay let’s have a conversation about Zukofsky’s and Olson’s modernist peotics
We are suicidally depressed beneath the gild, senpai.
Why do you think half those authors shot themselves.
Wow that’s a big e peen
Pierre and The Confidence-Man are both masterpieces

Why do you guys need to compete over who has better art? Can't be just be glad and celebrate good art whenever/wherever it comes to us?
I really don't understand lit's obsession with ranking and categorizing things
>doesnt believe in aesthetic elitism
please let this be bait.
