One of the tiring aspects of Substack is the condescending lectures from Littérateurs. You must read books! If you do not read books you are a low-IQ midwit!
Fuck that. Write a book worth reading and I’ll read it. No modern author is writing books worth reading.
The complaint is like the 1970s American auto industry complaining about foreign competition. Sorry, Detroit, you weren’t making cars worth driving. Germany and France and above all Japan were making high-quality and ENJOYABLE cars.
