Respecter of norms, friend to the people, writer in a past life.

Feels like everybody crying underneath this one is suffering from some mass psychosis. No, its not a poem and even if it were, its laughable that anyone would find it stunning. There is so much good poetry out there that I really hope these people discover

[nina 🫀 @cbmrw]

I dont know if it counts as a poem but

@cwik_greg This book is soo good. Incredible stuff.

[Bonépart @ThatBoyMao]

@iycrtylph Can relate so hard. One was quite foolish and childish in regards to fiction.

[Bonépart @ThatBoyMao]

I like Berger but he comes off as incredibly naive and childlike in that conversation.

[kate wehwalt @mcmansionhell]

John Berger destroys her in that debate simply by not being smug

[Bonépart @ThatBoyMao]

@DanielGorman20 Lol at sneaking in "playing video games" as if its on par with the other stuff.

@oraclesin Is there more to this extract? Something about the actual keeping of a notebook

@moonbeeaam Felt the same. Mann is an incredible writer but the book is lifeless and the drama goes down like a lead balloon

@SketchesbyBoze @CoffeeandIrony Well they're right, why would they include children's books?

[Robert Rubsam @rob_rubsam]

With all due respect to Jane Austen she did not write 4 of the 100 greatest novels of all time https://t.co/A9OEoEj4wp

"The political correctness armada", lmao conservatives really love making up things in their heads. He's an ok writer, somebody not liking his work is not canceling him. Be serious

[Edmund @Kulambq]

The political correctness armada is still trying to cancel Philip Roth. Ultimately, they will fail. He was one of the finest writers of the 20th and 21st centuries, and they can do nothing to change that. American Pastoral, The Human Stain, and a handful of his other works are works of lasting beauty.

@victorsmalm Åtminstone det är en kultur som har producerat tonvis av bra grejer. Skrattretande att försöka hålla upp svensk kultur som någon slags motvikt

This guy is living in a fantasy world. The Swedish economy is barely breathing, comatose

[David Luhnow @davidluhnow]

Sweden is one of the few countries to cut government spending. Thank capitalism.

It has a dynamic economy again, which is missing in much of Europe.

Great story by @TomFairless

Yeah, because sci-fi, for the most part, today is generic slop. If they weren't gonna give it to wells or any one in the past they sure as hell ain't gonna give it to some middling writer today just because it is a "popular genre"

[Shylock Holmes @shylockh]

Pretty much everything you need to know about the Nobel Prize in Literature is that they have never given a prize for Science Fiction, despite it being massively popular, and one of the most innovative genres of the 20th and 21st Centuries.

[Bonépart @ThatBoyMao]

@bartlebytaco Do you have a single favorite poem of his? One that stands out in particular

[Bonépart @ThatBoyMao]

@Dalkey_Archive Surely not Fosse and Stein though
