String comment = "/lit/ is for the discussion of literature, specifically books (fiction & non-fiction), short stories, poetry, creative writing, etc. If you want to discuss history, religion, or the humanities, go to /his/. If you want to discuss politics, go to /pol/. Philosophical discussion can go on either /lit/ or /his/, but those discussions of philosophy that take place on /lit/ should be based around specific philosophical works to which posters can refer.
Check the wiki, the catalog, and the archive before asking for advice or recommendations, and please refrain from starting new threads for questions that can be answered by a search engine.
/lit/ is a slow board! Please take the time to read what others have written, and try to make thoughtful, well-written posts of your own. Bump replies are not necessary.

String comment = "This books feels like the story is carved into the history of mankind, like it's a retelling of an ancient story. It is however, as far as I am aware, wholly unique, and although it's not biographical it's clearly inspired by events in the author's own life. It was, at the very least, the most memorable book written that year, as well as widely read and wildly successful.
So how come I never see this book, or its author, being discussed on /lit/? I'm puzzled as to how something like, say, A Confederacy of Dunces is mentioned at least semi-regularly while this isn't mentioned at all, ever. You would expect the story to resonate the self-loathing young man demographic that seems to make up the gross of the board. Amir is a horrible person and knows it, yet he has to learn to live with himself. He is as undeserving of the good things that happen to him as he is to the tragedies that befall him.
So what did you think of this book /lit/?";
