>>24556509 (OP)
I assure you women deserve it

>>24556509 (OP)
why?

>>24556869
It has a rape scene where two people are painted like flowers, but it’s told in a gut wrenching and horrid way that you realise it’s a comment on how rape is beautified by patriarchy, made to look sensual when it’s just a beastly savagery

>>24556808

i agreed greek lessons was sort of meh. i loved human acts though, would recommend it if you feel like giving her another chance.

>rape is beautified by patriarchy, made to look sensual
???
Men don't see rape as anything but something raw and violent. It's pornographic women literature that romanticise it.

>>24557411
Big if true.

>>24557742
Women can belong to the patriarchy. That's what internalized misogyny is.

>>24558095
Nice bait anon, but no one will fall for this

>>24557411
OK so what does that have to do with being vegetarian

>>24558095
Sure is wonderful no matter what happens it's NEVER women's fault

Han Kang rejects the male centric society that is obsessed with meat eating and male sexuality. When the main character rejects meat, a symbol of masculinity and male dominance, she is labelled a schizophrenic and anorexic. I think the general ethical stance of vegetarianism is aligned with the feminist refusal to accept violence or power.

Sounds like dogshit. Not reading korean schizo feminism

You don’t sound like much of a reader to begin with

I don't understand why the book is labeled "feminist" there is some negative aspects about how she gets force fed by her dad, raped by her husband and taken advantage of by a guy who is unable to see her mental illness. But it is more presented in a "all men are bad" way. Reading her other book Human Acts there are plenty of good male characters as well.

>>24557411
Or you cold just see it as a man only caring about her body and being so fixated on "the Mongolian mark" to not notice she is clearly mentally ill.

>>24558166
>she is labelled a schizophrenic and anorexic
She clearly is mentally ill. She does a handstand in the hall for hours and stops eating completely since she hopes to become a tree.

Tell me where I am wrong retard. Is this board incapable of literary analysis?

>>24559237
>Is this board incapable of literary analysis?
For the most part yes, especially in threads not made for literary analysis such as this.

I am a brown 3rd worlder and I was molested by a couple of old hags. Will I make it as a rape victim in book award world?

>>24559493

It doesn't make me feel that way.

>>24559176
Why are you leaving out literary symbolism?

>>24559493
Dazai already did it. But he wasn't brown.

This book made me so horny

My gf read it recently. She said it was ok. There is a part where the protagonist eats a bird if I remember correctly.

>>24558166
you know a book sucks if its called feminist and is being parroted on tiktok. everything in this thread makes it sound like retarded femoid shit

>fem shitbook
You deserve it because you're reading that shit

Feminists are women who never got a good dicking in their life. The reason why submissive wife exist is because their husband dicked them good in the bed that it ended up rewiring their brain into thinking that the husband is their leader

>>24559237
I don’t know what you expected. This board barely churns out intelligible discussions on McCarthy or Pynchon these days. To believe posting this here would do anything but agitate the monkeys is silly.

>>24563141
He just gave a realist interpretation of the book. It’s not literary analysis as such. He takes everything at face value and pretends that’s profound.

>>24558095
So patriarchy is run by women. Why're they maintaining their great enemy?

>>24563910
Because they’re enjoying it. That’s what a pick me is.
