Does Faulkner write like a normal human being or does he invert all his n's or some bullshit quirk that I'll hate?

if you think cormac mccarthy is pretentious poo poo, you probably won't like faulkner

I'm reading Borges' Collected Fictions and yes

Borges is kinda spergy though

He collected fictions are basically him going "Hey isn't this idea neat?" and then forgetting to add characters.

Julio Cortazar is pretty pimp tho

I would be ok with him making a blood meridian movie if he ends up getting raped to death

Not in the movie, just in general

unless it was like an HBO miniseries i can't imagine fitting all of blood meridian in to a movie. also it would be impossible to get rated

seeing the comanche scene on film would be amazing if done right

franco is a loving fool if he wants to make blood meridian into a film. the mpaa would tear him a new rear end in a top hat. he needs to take his loving hands off of good poo poo and stick to shoving them up his rear end in a top hat. Make it an HBO mini if you want to do it. Goddamn.
