Gene Wolfe

Aside from myself I have no answer.

Shake Spear

Thomas Pynchon takes Joyce's Schizophrenic style and linguistic agility, improves on it, and uses it for actual characterization/social commentary. He is the best English writer of all time. Fight me.

Gene Wolfe is the best aesthetic writer.

Peake

Pynchon is my favourite writer but if we're talking solely about prose Joyce's is objectively better.

Melville you fucking plebs

Herman Hesse

Hahaha everyone point and laugh

Sorry, meant to quote

No I didn't fuck off

Am I being laughed at or not

Of course, but not by us specifically.

As I thought

John Updike

Rabindranath Tagore

Dylan Thomas
>sloe black slow black

>In English?
That's a fucking bar you retard. How can anyone trust your opinion on writers when you clearly can't fucking read?

Whats an updike?

Wouldn't it be a Nietzsche translation just because of the unparalleled clarity of thought? Is that not the chief aim of prose?

BIG LAUGH AHA

>Is that not the chief aim of prose?
No. Aesthetics are

The motherfucking king of prose.

Stop, Pinkyvivian

Kafka tb,h
