What are some books about artistic NEET's who do nothing but go outside for looking for social events or doing artistic neet stuff. Is NEET the right word I'm looking for?

Other than The Sun Also Rises.

Your post is a crime against syntax.

sorry english is my first language

This movie had a very profound effect on me. Are Paolo Sorrintino's other films similar?

The Young Pope is even more touching. I feel like you really have to be of old age to appreciate Youth. Consequences of Love is fine too.

Yeah, they're worth checking out. I initially wasn't keen on The Great Beauty but I saw Youth (very funny and touching, loved it when Michael Caine and Harvey Keitel took bets on a couple in the hotel and why they never spoke to each other) and The Young Pope and now when I revisit The Great Beauty it feels all the more satisfying. Need to see Consequences of Love sometime.

this direttore, in my country, he is no persona

wat

>neet going out looking for social events

whew lad

i'm sorry. i couldn't think of another word.

You know this movie was a direct critique of that lifestyle right?

watched the young pope earlier today. The scene where his letter is read makes me tear up every time.

ha, you can tell his nipples had been at one time or another chopped off, imagine being some savvy artist or admirer and saving two giant marble nipples in your cupboard just in case some censorious movement passes and you can clap those nipples back on. Imagine the foresight! What a wild world we live in.

>tfw no Neptunian nips in your desk drawer

I don't think so. This writeup of the meaning of the movie shows you why it isn't.

Bohemian might be a better phrase. NEET is conceptually pretty recent although people who don't work aren't.

Yeah that's the word I should of used. I forgot it existed.

El túnel - Ernesto Sábato

La Dolce Vita did it best though

La Dolce Vita and The Great Beauty are two completely different films. Read the link I posted.

they aren't. sorrentino himself pointed out this connection
some redditor's analysis means nothing

Where? On the supplement on the criterion disk he says he doesn't understand why people connect them since he doesn't think there is any.

Most of Henry James involves rich art lovers who never do any work socialising with other idle aesthetes

Rest in pepperino, English language.

I disagree just a bit. The artist actually has merit and has done work. It's his contemporaries who are mostly fucking about.

Mann’s Faustus

The Bathroom by Jean-Philippe Toussaint is close. Just let the man play his tennis.

I don't think neet is the word you were looking for, but this kind of fits your description.

The Wind Up Bird Chronicle
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Is it wrong that I was jelly of Belazza protag's lifestyle
>just live off the royalties lmao

neets aren't hermits you fucking retard

A fucking neet means you have no job, nor have any plan to get one. So get a job you lazy fuck before worrying about how to read more books

they are almost always characterized by introversion, someone who makes art for money and has friends, is part of a vibrant social scene isn’t really a NEET in the sense it is meant here

My. Diary Desu.
I'm NEET besides my main income being playing and booking diy shows

>I don't know the difference between a NEET and hikikomori

You must be an extreme introvert if you think artists cannot be profoundly lonely or isolated. Could you really not even imagine that possibly the social/business side of that scene could be shallow as hell? Maybe even directly mirroring wojak more effectively than being a totally useless NEET?

The Razors Edge by Maugham. Pretty foundational text too.

>tfw I want to watch The Great Beauty, but my brother, without whom I have never seen a movie, thinks it looks like a silly movie about "the club lifestyle"

Why don't you watch it by yourself or why don't you tell him it's not that?
