US lit figures were based tho, Steinbeck, Twain, Hemingway (IIRC)
Same, Hemingway was cool friends with Castro but tbh would have been shit to be married to or try and maintain a functional relation with (dude was a lowkey mess)
He’s also not a very good writer. Last time I said that here I got some r*ddit-brained guy telling me i was a high schooler with bad taste tho lmao

Lenin
Lenin walks around the world.
Frontiers cannot bar him.
Neither barracks nor barricades impede.
Nor does barbed wire scar him.
Lenin walks around the world.
Black, brown, and white receive him.
Language is no barrier.
The strangest tongues believe him.
Lenin walks around the world.
The sun sets like a scar.
Between the darkness and the dawn
There rises a red star.
-Langston Hughes

Love to drunkenly play william tell with my spouse’s skull and a .38 caliber automatic pistol. Wholesome game for the whole family.
burrough was a great writer. without him we wouldn’t have, for one, pynchon (etc.). Most of his demons were caused by addictions, which means they were out of his control
Fuck off apologizing for this man. Burroughs domestically abused and then murdered his wife in front of their kid.
