A daring synthesis between /tv/ and /lit/. Lowbrow meets highbrow. Very Hegelian.

>conflating autofictional Max with real Max
Kek, babby's first literary interpretation mistake. He's clearly wanting to project an aura of insecurity on this fictional version of Max as some form of metacommentary on the pretentiousness of the arts/writing/translation scene. This is doubly reinforced with the sardonic put-down of Stephen King.

The first sentence is jarringly incomplete and the second is a sloppy run-on. I don't know who this Lawton guy is.

You know how 4channers post their screeds on /lit/ for appraisal, well Max does that on Twitter instead.
And because it's Twitter, he only gets fawning replies.

Matthew isn't wrong about books becoming dust-collectors...I often wonder why I keep any of the books I purchase...or why I purchase them at all...
