Marguerite Young, too. The fact that she’s frequently out of print is not James Joyce’s fault.

She’s awesome. Less stream-of-consciousness, more philosophy and humor. A Severed Head is the one I’ve read most recently, and it’s hilarious. Haven’t read The Black Prince yet but I’ve heard good things.

No they’re saying a woman could never write a book as bad as Finnegan’s wake or Ulysses as they are saying those books are hard to read and unentertaining.

I kinda like Finnegan’s wake. It makes zero sense and isn’t readable but it has some sentences I really like.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
