[Reply] [Original]

>Towering over them all is the judge & he is naked dancing, his small feet lively & quick & now in doubletime & bowing to the ladies, huge & pale & hairless, like an enormous infant

>He never sleeps, he says

>He says he’ll never die

Is this the most powerful passage on the whole book?

I have never read blood meridian because I didn't get on with his style in the Road and to be quite honest would quite like some punctuation and I'm sure that you will call me names and abuse me and that it would be deserved because I am a pleb but I don't understand what the fuck his problem is with punctuation and why he is so adverse to using it and why commas are good enough for everybody else but not for him.

because the man went to a porn convention and got photographed with that expression. then fins on int started something out every time people said he was Finnish, and it stayed a meme long enough for people to find his twitter and find an imdb account (nobody knows if it's actually his) that reviews around 10-15 pornos a day. we found the Finnish cooker in the flesh.

Westward progress. Setting down boundaries and maps of "terrains so wild and barbarous to try whether the stuff of creation may be shaped to man's will or whether his own heart is not another kind of clay." That heart's trial is over, and so is the story.

I finished this book a few weeks ago and recently read out loud the first chapter to my gf. somehow reading it out loud to someone helps me to appreciate it even more. Just the introductory passage "See the child" caused emotions to well up in me. What a powerful book.

I used to do this with Faulkner, but to myself and not to my girlfriend.
>>13831286
I'd say Lynchian actually applies here. And why is Pynchon surging in popularity again here anyway? Are people reading Pinecone as the summer winds down? If so, I recommend they read Mason and Dixon. What a book to read in the autumn.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 16 23:27:59 2019 No.13831347 >>13831322 I think there's an overlap between the Pynch and the Lynch, and both have always been popular on 4chan.
