You don't have to get it, you have to get the meme, swallow the meme, assimilate the meme

>the best english language novel of the past 50 years is a meme
Kys

It's beautifully written and entertaining, to be sure, but I didn't get anything out of it. Everything seemed pretty unimportant to me.

Kek, if that's the best English language novel of the past 50 years I'll start unlearning English tomorrow

You don't "get" novels, you read them. All that's relevant is whether or not you liked the book. You've been corrupted by academia.

There were absolutely 0 people in the audience listening to Shakespeare/Homer/Cervantes and saying "I don't get this." It struck a chord with the audience, which is the entire basis of it being judged worthy of analysis.

So did you like it?

"Getting it" is understanding the point. If there is no point beyond entertainment or aethetics, don't you think that's kind of superficial?

Anyway, academia has nothing to with this. Plenty of books I can find by its end a certain epiphany. Plato's Truth-in-Progress, if you will. That's the kind of thing I love in reading books.

You can't get your kicks from entertainment alone. If so, you might as well read Stephen King or Harry Potter, m80.

No, he's right.
