I'm not actually bothered by that. If someone wants to write a tongue in cheek guide to a subset of classical literature, more power to him. I just hope he's not too disrespectful but if he is so be it.

lol im trying to figure out what their angle is

I'm guessing it's just a book of collected cliff notes banking on humor to sell copies.

but how is it a white male's guide? im trying to figure out how the will work comedically

obv i'd have to look and see

with it just being a cover and all lol

The guy who wrote it is white. It's his guide so it's a white man's guide.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting and it's meant to be a guide for white men.

yea its a guide for white men

its just sounds weird when its followed by "white male writers"

The guy who wrote it is white. It's his guide so it's a white man's guide.

Are you sure? I don't think white people seek out things that are explicitly aimed at them racially that often.

Written by Dana Schwartz

Oh, I see.

Is this one of those "aren't you jewish?" memes?

Written by Dana *Schwartz*

im sure. thats how it works. "the idiot's guide to wealth creation" for example.

*While a writer at the New York Observer, Schwartz wrote an open letter to her employer Jared Kushner criticizing his father-in-law Donald Trump's posting content from anti-Semitic sources on his Twitter feed, to which Kushner wrote a similar open letter in response.[14][15][16]*

and yea white ppl dont usually buy things like that.

nor are we used to it lol

it'd probably be for guilty white progressives

oh its a woman lol

Dana schwartz is a woman

a jewish woman?

Oh, so much for that theory then.

now its even more patronizing

I hope that open letter reply said something along the lines of 'My father-in-law is his own man, and can do as he pleases. I couldn't change that even if I wanted to, so get fucked.'

and its prob full blown intersectional

Based on what I know about Jared Kushner though, I doubt it.

Sorry I didn't mean to interject I just thought the Every Single Time thing was pretty funny. I don't actually know anything about the book.

I can't imagine someone who is not full blown intersectional coming up with a book like that.

true

I t was in the humor section of indego/chapters
