I’ve read one of your post recently and you were mentioning Annie Ernaux’s Les Années, and so I was wondering what you thought of her getting the Nobel Prize for Literature this year? Kinda curious if I should give her a go :)

She is so unworthy of a Nobel !! I enjoyed Les Années and La Femme gelée but the rest of her books range from “meh, ok” (Les Armoires vides, La Place) to banal navel-gazing (Passion simple, Mémoire de fille). She tends to rehash the same stuff in book after book—not just the themes and specific memories and scenes but phrasings as well; if you read all of her books in quick succession you'll notice the same phrases and descriptions popping up in different books and it's like mate, you've already used similar words to tell a similar story, why did this warrant a new book...?

(She writes about the same childhood memories in the same way in three or four different books, but the worst example of rehashing is Se perdre. Her book Passion simple is a shortened and very slightly re-written diary she kept while having a humiliatingly one-sided ‘passionate’ affair with some guy who didn’t care about her—and a few years later she published Se perdre which is the actual (nearly 400-page!) diary she’d used as the basis for Passion simple, without shortening or revising it this time. And it’s like... you’ve now published your diary TWICE, and your affair with a married guy who’s a selfish arsehole really wasn’t a new or interesting story to begin with...)

All in all I don't think her body of work brings something significant and unique to world literature and I'm baffled by this decision. Then again Modiano and Le Clézio didn't deserve the Nobel either so I’m not sure how it works. I heard that Houellebecq was considered this year and that was a horrifying prospect, I loathe him and his writing. Plus he's a man and I personally think the Nobel for Literature should be given only to women writers for the next 85 years so we can reach a laureate ratio that's less grotesquely imbalanced than 17 women vs. 102 men.

(But that’s not an excuse for giving it to Annie Ernaux.)

#ask #''well she's not a /bad/ writer'' shouldn't be enough for a nobel #(i always hesitate to recommend even her best book—les années—because it's so embedded in french culture (it's the whole point) #that i don't know how interesting it would be for people to whom all these cultural references mean nothing or very little) #anyway #french writers whose nobel nomination i won't dispute: camus sartre bergson anatole france and andré gide #le clézio modiano mauriac mistral fucking romain rolland and roger martin du gard didn't deserve theirs #the others i've not read so i can't say

I miss creative writing in english class I don’t wanna write a fucking comparative paragraph about existentialism in two damn near unrelated pieces of media I want to write about silly little guys doing things

#okay so we have to compare sartre’s no exit to the good place right? #but we only watched the first season that literally almost has nothing in common with the play #so comparing it is SUPER difficult and I’ve never seen the good place so I can’t analyze it through a ‘critical lens’ #when all I’m trying to do is understand the plot and what’s happening #I’m being dead fucking serious when I say we should’ve watched ghosts instead that’s not even me being autistic it’s literally the better #show to watch for this sort of comparison #while we were reading the play I was able to naturally draw comparisons between characters and situations #julian is garcin estelle is kitty and inez is a mix between a lot of characters such as thomas julian and the captain #I can go on about the themes of each but this is long enough lol #idk I’m just so tired of using so much brain power and getting fucking nothing written down

Jean Paul-Sartre be like "I hate how Camus doesn't actually get his hands dirty and care about those oppressed so let me support Joseph Stalin instead"

#20th century philosopher complains about dictators oppressing the underdogs but then supports a dictator? #more likely than you think! #albert camus #jean paul sartre #rambles #the audacity of him to jab at camus over his fucking grave though #how much of a bastard do you have to be to talk shit over your ex friend's dead body

[carmeloffie]

calling people npcs is the latest trend and it makes me want to rip someone apart with my fucking teeth. are you not aware of your insignificant place in the vast universe. are you so vainglorious and egomaniacal that you cannot enjoy the human experience not being a singular occurrence. people have truly lost all sense of humanity and love for one’s insignificant place in the grand scheme of things. come back to me when you’ve read some sartre and tell me if you feel the same. otherwise i’m going to fucking kill you.

#although i doubt the child that brought this feeling of arduous #rage would even have the fucking mental ability or critical thinking skills to understand a fucking sentence of sartre. i could kill someone #samael speaks

[postmodernlover]

at my next court mandated therapy appointment I'm simply going to make the therapist watch jean paul sartre's play no exit and just be like "whatever diagnose you would give to the main character- go ahead and also give it to me I think that will be more efficient"

#jean paul sartre rewrote my brain with this one fucking play

Why is your blog title "Voltaire was a punk bitch"

Because it's the truth, he really was a punk bitch, I wanted to punch him even in The Great

DAMN YOU LENNY BERNSTEIN FOR WRITING SUCH GOOD MUSIC FOR CANDIDE

#voltaire #was a punk bitch #anon asks #blaise pascal did the best satirical texts of all time with the provinciales and any attempt to do the same has been a lesser product #that includes voltaire's entire body of work #french literature nerd tag #he's that guy i don't find any redeeming features in his body of work #and he shares that dishonor with the marquis de sade #jean-paul sartre is on thin fucking ice with huis clos

twitter liked this one so i thought i'd put it here too <3
