If this is the final boss of literature, what's the secret final boss?

>> No.18562177

After you read all the main books, read all the side books, collect all collectible books and read the final boss book, you gain access to the post-credits scene of books, Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff. If you made all the wrong choices, you get the joke ending, Call of the Crocodile.

>Modern high culture is as much a set of footnotes to Wagner as Western philosophy is, in Whitehead’s judgement, footnotes to Plato.
- Roger Scruton

>And yet, after having said all this about Modernism, I consider myself a Modernist – but in the context of a vast application of the term extending miles beyond the pokey wee official area to which usually it is confined. For in truth there are really two kinds of Modernism to be uncovered in the space of the last two and a half centuries, and it is to the first and largest of these that I belong and to which, in my small way, I contribute. This is the Modernism that was born in neo-classicism and has, as its great central titan, the mighty Richard Wagner.
- Alexander Stoddart

>Wagner sums up modernity. There is no way out, one must first become a Wagnerian.
- Nietzsche

Joyce, Proust, imitations of Wagner.
