Yea Forums only started posting about Celine after I read him. I don't know what you guys are up to or why you didn't post about him before I read him, but I'm on to you.

Why do people even try to read frenchfaggotry? Literally nothing of literary goodness ever popped out of this shithole.
Jordan Parker
I don't like reading French books since I have no idea how to pronounce any of the names of people, places, etc.

it's a great book. but american nerds in their 20s with no life experience (and none to come, ever) won't get it.

I've never heard of this. Got a link to anything written on that meeting?
This might be true. I finished it a couple weeks ago, and while I enjoyed many parts of it, the whole thing ends extremely abruptly for such a drawn out novel. I was bored by the end and was disappointed with its conclusion.

not gonna make it, la

But a man deserves a conclusion after 500 pages of nonsense, does he not... it is unthinkable! Truly! ...After no shortage of ellipses filled rants, I tell you! It's true! Don't you agree? ...A man can only endure so much... and to be not given a conclusion, Bardamu... truly that man is nearer to the end of the night than the rest...

>n December 7, 1941, as the world reeled from the shock of the Japanese assault on Pearl Harbor, Ernst Jünger, stationed with the German occupying forces in Paris, dropped by the Institut allemand in Paris and had a shock of his own. Céline was there, we read in Jünger's war diary, and proceeded to deliver himself of a diatribe on Germany's undue leniency in its policy toward the Jews. "If the Bolsheviks were in Paris, they would let you see how things are done; they'd show you how to cleanse a population, neighborhood by neighborhood, house by house. If I had a bayonet, I'd know what had to be done."

I like this book but goddamn if the first bit after he leaves New York and ends up in France against isn’t boring as fuck.
Ian Diaz
isn't that when he visits the girl hemorrhaging from a back-alley abortion with her mother in hysterics and father staring dumbly at his feet? That was my favorite part, that and the guy who likes watching the girls at the lycee
Anthony Phillips
and then the old woman Raymond's trying to snuff out, and his bomb goes off in his face, and she spends her days taking tourists through the crypts, thumping on the wizened chests of the interred? Great stuff
Charles Green
he watches her bleeding to death, and he's like, you need to take her to the hospital, and the mother won't have it, can't bear the shame, then he's like, i remembered i put my beans on to boil, and heads home, fuckin riot, 'did i leave the stove on?' blood seeps through the linens, 'shit, i did, well, i'm off.'
William Reed
The part where they're in the South of France was great. Most of the stuff in Vanchy was incredibly boring.
Ian Butler
pretty good book, but the author loves dwelling on the fact that he's a bitch with a bitch attitude. it was pretty funny though. i just remember something about the boat ride to NY and fleas being hilarious.
