/lit/ - Literature

Only read 'Breath' ('Der Atem') and thought it was interesting but nothing exceptional. His prose is often praised but I thought it was a bit clumsy, maybe due to the translation (read it in Spanish). Have 'Woodcutters' (also in Spanish) and want to read this year.

great author, his work can be very uplifting and funny at times despite the constant negativity
just finished reading "old masters" in translation, like it better than "the loser" but both were great. reger reminded me of my grandfather, the bitter lovable fuck. plan on reading more from him, possibly in german if i get to a good enough level.

his song goes very hard
love from austria
I hate austria so much its unreal

What's his type?

How do you stop being cynically "clever" and actually write as if you are doing "serious" art?

Where do I start with this man?

What's Thomas Bernhard's best work? He was quite prolific.

*ahem*

was he based?

what was his problem?

itt we post based and redpilled writers

>I can only say that for a quarter of a century I have dealt with women only. I can hardly bear men. I can't bear conversations with men. They drive me crazy. Men always talk about the same things. About their job and about women. You cannot expect anything from men. A lot of men in one place are terrible. I even prefer gossiping women. Relating to women had always been useful to me. I learnt everything from women -- and my grandfather. I don't believe I learnt anything from men. Men have always gotten on my nerves. Strange. After the death of my grandfather there was just nobody there any longer. I always sought protection with women, who in many things were also superior to me. Above all women let me work in peace. I was always able to work near women. I could never produce anything near men

is thomas bernhard the most based writer to ever live?

>There are no families anymore, only live-in arrangements, rail and postal workers credit unions, travel associations, limited philosophy partnerships, literature societies, smoked-meat societies, turnip cooperatives' societies, burlap bag associations, legal societies, weed-killing societies, societies for the praise and adoration of God: spare parts heaped on top of each other in some giant spare-part warehouse: a huge pile of sh-t for a world.
>Your mistake, my sister had said, is to isolate yourself completely in our house. You don't go and visit friends any longer, though we have so many. What she said was true. But what does one mean by friends? We know a number of people, perhaps even a lot of people; there are a few whom we've known since we were children and who have not yet died or moved away for good. Every year we used to visit them frequently and they used to come to our house. But that doesn't make them friends, not by a long chalk. My sister is quick to call somebody a friend, even somebody she hardly knows, if it suits her book. Come to think of it, I haven't any friends at all. Since I grew up I haven't had a single friend. Friendship -- what a leprous word! People use it every day ad nauseam, so that it's become utterly devalued, at least as much so as the word Love, which has been trampled to death.'

Wrong. Bernhard makes love to the camera in an effortlessly playful way. He was a saucy minx.
