chernobyl kinsman posted:you do realize that just because a narrator does something like that it doesn't mean you're supposed to view it positively or uncritically, right To be fair, that's a hard lesson to learn. I only learned so in the past few weeks. I've just finished some "easier" literature works and the kindle version of this is cheap, so I'll jump in and have a go.

A human heart posted:How old are you?? 28. But hey, I only just learnt it. font color sea apparently didn't know. Maybe the problem isn't that we're dumb, but that you're just a genius? Eh, it's probably both. As an aside, where DID you learn these things? I never went to university so if we're supposed to learn these little rules there I'm way out of luck. I'm pretty sure it was never covered at secondary school either.

A human heart posted:i am a genius, but i don't understand why you would need you learn this like it's a maths equation. like, a person in real life can already say things that they dont actually believe. if a person writes a fictional book, then its even easier for them to say stuff they dont actually believe or think is positive or approve of, because its not them the person talking anymore. I guess it's a mix of naivety and an inability to apply lessons and knowledge to a broad scope. I had no trouble with the concept when it applied to film and tv, but it seems I have a massive blind spot when it comes to critically thinking about the written word and it wasn't until a very kind goon spelt out the idea to me, using The Sopranos as an example, that I actually got it. I'd be a terrible karate kid but an excellent car waxer. EDIT: ^^^^^ What this goon says is true, to.
