Moby Dick and a few of his shorter works are great...but those adventure novels. Whew lad.
That's not David Foster Wallace
he cute
That's not JK Rowling
The only American writer I feel immense envy towards
Melville, Herman. Love him. One would like to have filmed him at breakfast, feeding a sardine to his cat.
billy budd was gay lmao
Yeah, cause you’re better than Whitman, Faulkner, James, etc.
Yeah I am thanks. and those writers aren't even good, so it's not easy to do
Really? Cause you just wrote a contradiction in a matter of two sentences. No discernible talent
You're an idiot. That's why you're on /lit faggot
:(
Whitman and James were pure fags and Faulkner was a manlet
Not only was Melville an immensely talented writer, he was a former harpooner and a specimen of a man with a masculine face and beautiful hair
he was the ships florist!
>Melville
>not a big gay
I bet you think Achilles was gay for fucking twink boys too
ahem
where do I start with this man? Just jump into the recognitions?
Yeah, chronological is best
JR
He was not a 4channer
