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.

Pynchon is my favourite writer but if we're talking solely about prose Joyce's is objectively better.
Melville you fucking plebs
Herman Hesse

Of course, but not by us specifically.
As I thought
John Updike
Rabindranath Tagore
Dylan Thomas

>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
