>Rowling has named communist and civil rights activist Jessica Mitford as her "most influential writer" saying, "Jessica Mitford has been my heroine since I was 14 years old, when I overheard my formidable great-aunt discussing how Mitford had run away at the age of 19 to fight with the Reds in the Spanish Civil War", and claims what inspired her about Mitford was that she was "incurably and instinctively rebellious, brave, adventurous, funny and irreverent, she liked nothing better than a good fight, preferably against a pompous and hypocritical target"
Yuck

Why are you so concerned about this?
What would you rather: people not reading at all or people reading mainstream literature?
Angel Turner
Stop being hypocritical and push your shit back into your anus, thanks
Mason Kelly
she wishes she had a sister like unity/diana to be compared to. makes sense, but jessica's better than her even though jessica ain't great, and for a novelist, one really should say nancy.

Not reading at all. Universal literacy was a mistake

That's the thesis nietzsche put forward. Universal literacy leads to a debasement of writing and eventually of thinking.

Nancy best sister. Decca just looks good because Diana's a fascist and Unity's a fangirl and Pamela's a fucking chicken farmer. Nancy a best.

everything is wrong with being a communist they need to sort themselves out
Brody Carter
Teaching faggots like you to read was a mistake. The only downside to universal literacy is that I have to read your comments like they matter to anyone.
Hudson Nguyen
I haven't enjoyed Harry Potter since I was a kid, but that's a pretty good icon to look up to.
JK Rowling is a couple billion dollars above caring about literary criticism at this point, and everything that could ever be said about her works has been said a million times over by too many people to count. Who gives a fuck.
Dominic Garcia
Not really, my family is rich and I would receive a good education anyway. I have strong genes, I don't need to kneel before politicians in order to obtain what I want.
Liam Nguyen
>strong genes >posting about books on a website for Japanese little girl cartoons You would've been among the first in the camps.

Face it lad, the more people who are literate, the more debased literature becomes
Ian Wood
High and low literature will always be separate, just as oral tradition and literature was in the past. This myth of the "debasement" of literature is just a muh sekrit club attitude from your own ego. Do you really think the existence of Stephen King changes the writing of serious authors? Of course not.

It might even read like that, if you take the comment out of context and suffer from severe mental retardation.
Logan Powell
It's simple, simpletons. We use a different writing system for literature, one that's highly complex and arcane, one that demands years of dedicated study to master. Or we invent a refined, both purified and enriched register of the language for such uses, an English katharevousa, if you will.
Gavin Carter
Correlation not causation
Thomas Perry
Lol then explain why there is no more great literature today
John Roberts
Yet she donates 1 million pound to keep Scotland in the union and probably thinks corbyn should resign since he's "unelectable"
Anthony Rodriguez
She thought the same thing about Blumpf. Watching her get white woman triggered by everything he does is hilarious
Dylan Hall
civilization in decline why aren't people writting classics anymore guys
