pretty much. being careful and thinking schemes are made in current year; is viewed has schizo tier.
This is your brain on post-mo. Fuck Eco. Biggest fucking pseud. I used to like him but, his early stuff is great but after it became post-mo smugness. Kinda looks like Arrogance from ignorance.

haven’t read this is in 5 years but it remains one of my favorites, even though I remember the protaganist being pretty plain. once they told the “alternate” story of the templars I was hooked

similar subject matter but completely different storytelling. FP has loads more historical depth

There was a while where I was super immersed in post modern literature and I read it first while I was deep in that hole. I tried reading it recently and out of that context I can't fucking stand it. Just trust me to pick up what you're putting down, you cynical old fool. No wonder everyone was aching for a new sincerity.

Sorry I was anonymously ranting while pointedly not referring to my own personal context; ie: an anti-in-joke. The short version is that I have to step up to a not natural (to me) level of reading to enjoy postmodern literature, which was far easier during my less pretentious early twenties because I was deep into the genre as a whole. Now that I'm older and value a slow comfy book with no meaning behind itself I've come to consider the defining trait of postmodernism to be a high pitched anxiety that the reader won't get what the writer means so the writer must give all these clues and portents to the reader so they have all these arrows pointing toward the meaning of the thing. It brings the intellect to bear when what I value more and more as I grow out of pomo is 'soul' or writing that brings EQ to bear more than IQ. oh no im doing it again
