Neither can you though.

Yeah, her "prose" is like a more soulless version of Hemingway/Salinger. Completely banal

>>15051866
tfw no cute irish gf

>>15051866
This counts as an 8/10 in the North-West European Archipelago.

>>15051866
she kinda looks like handsome squidward

>>15051866
the self-insertion is too obvious with this bourgeois-bohémien cunt

she writes perfectly well, if a bit too flat at times. she's the dostoevsky of our time; a supreme chronicler of people and their lives and ideas, however lame they might be. can't wait to see her ditch the light YA of her previous work and blossom into a proper novelist

>>15051871
I got into Iowa though

>>15052090
yeah especially in Normal People. A girl who's flat-chested and plain-looking if a bit ugly who does well in school and somehow gets a hot guy to fall in love with her

God she's so fucking bad. Read Ottessa Moshfegh instead.

His mother was a model.

>>15051866
Who is she?

>>15052110
kys

She’s this meme Irish authoress who wrote a book that was popular a couple years ago. Her name is Tao Lin. I think it’s Gaelic for ‘fetal alcohol syndrome’. You should buy her book.

>>15052090
that's all anyone writes anymore, its all so tiresome

>>15052234
i enjoy both! though moshfegh is clearly superior (she's also around ten years older i think). she's great, i'm surprised she isn't more popular on here. her fiction is very bleak and often crosses into the sort of territory that /lit/ posters seem to like (or at least tolerate, and even churn out themselves) when it comes to contemporary lit (let's call it houllebecq-adjacent)
>>15052393
no. what are you even doing itt, like why go on the internet just to shit on things

>>15051866
Is this milkman girl? The one about a girl pretending to be mad that a hot dangerous alpha ira dude wants to fuck the supposedly plain Jane protagonist?

>>15052516
no

She's cute. Sláinte!

>>15052194
>A girl who's flat-chested and plain-looking if a bit ugly who does well in school and somehow gets a hot guy to fall in love with her

this is realistic though

>>15051866

>>15051873

No. it's a wasteland. Writing is a dead art.

>>15053786

>the English ask 'Who are you?'
>Americans ask 'How are you?'
>Western man asks 'Where?'
>Arabs ask 'When?' due to their sense of records and measurements
>Romans would ask 'How?' because of their operational sensibility.
>Greeks asked 'Why?' because of their need to understand fate.
Every society, it seems, has a question to ask.

>>15051866

>>15052110
>implying Dostoievski was good

>>15052234
Dis. My cutie brappig gf loves her which is 30% social obligation, 20% jewish obligation, and 50% "i'm totally reading this but not really" but in this day and age that's as good as it gets

>>15052414
