you mean beta simpin' voice

Probably because of the type of people who consume 'the classics' are pedos. Used to be that critics were a high-class intelligentsia, back when the only way you could consume lots of media was to be wealthy. These people are invariably hedonists, and therefore pedos, pedos in denial or borderline pedos.

Probably the reason people love confessions by Mishima for all the wrong reasons.

2020-02-13 12:09:03 UTC  

do you know the theory salinger was pedo too? he's catcher of the rye, the main characther is actually a pedo too

2020-02-13 12:09:09 UTC  

hypergamy? that's a unique interpretation 🙂

2020-02-13 12:09:50 UTC  

As a person who knew that is was just a famous book before reading it, don't read it

2020-02-13 12:10:27 UTC  

most books are like overvalued and if you don't know how to read between the lines, you'll end up as a english lit major

2020-02-13 12:10:39 UTC  

People seem to only want to read it because it's famous. Is it a good book? Regardless of the subject matter is it actually good?

2020-02-13 12:10:59 UTC  

I don't think so. Could've been written better.

2020-02-13 12:11:30 UTC  

Also, you have better things to read than this temporal dust

I'm really enjoying Confessions so far, but it's a translation. I'm not sure if I'm experiencing the work the same way it would've been experienced unadulterated, but I like the prose.

2020-02-13 12:12:10 UTC  

Confessions of a Mask by Yukio Mishima.

2020-02-13 12:12:44 UTC  

Also, I have to point out that I don't know much about these authors and their historical relevance ( meaning how they are connected with the JQ in the past 70 years or so)

2020-02-13 12:12:47 UTC  

I'm at the part where the character, as an adolescent, falls in love with an older delinquent classmate.

2020-02-13 12:12:54 UTC  

Wait I've seen Confessions

2020-02-13 12:12:58 UTC  

Lol it's based on a book?

2020-02-13 12:13:04 UTC  

Confessions of a Mask

2020-02-13 12:13:24 UTC  

There's no adaption that I know of.

2020-02-13 12:13:33 UTC  

Oh ok that's a different one

2020-02-13 12:13:41 UTC  

Translations are literally different works. Prose is tied to its particular language.
You like the translator's interpretation of the book

2020-02-13 12:13:42 UTC  

Confessions, the film is pretty based though

2020-02-13 12:13:52 UTC  

Yes

2020-02-13 12:13:54 UTC  

Most likely

2020-02-13 12:14:07 UTC  

But the translater did a good job

2020-02-13 12:15:02 UTC  

Yukio Mishima is actually pewdiepie's favorite author.

2020-02-13 12:15:12 UTC  

nothing beats a good transformated mac beth

2020-02-13 12:15:39 UTC  

Really sucks that Mishima is regarded as an LGBT author.

2020-02-13 12:15:59 UTC  

It's technically true but he despised everything that community stood for.

2020-02-13 12:16:02 UTC  

dbz lgbt saga was based tbh

2020-02-13 12:16:18 UTC  

YES

2020-02-13 12:16:23 UTC  

I CALLED IT

2020-02-13 12:16:31 UTC  

FIRST INTERSTATE NULLIFICATION COMPACT

2020-02-13 12:16:33 UTC  

Confessions represents everything Mishima would not want for his own life and anyone in his position.

2020-02-13 12:16:40 UTC  

Read this

2020-02-13 12:16:48 UTC
