This is all just crass literary snobbery... "look, just look how badly Dan Brown writes, I could do better, here let me weave in some reference to Keats".

The fact is that Dan Brown is laughing all the way to the bank while this mere pamphleter rails against perceived slights against literary asceticism.



Is this comment a bad joke? Or did you miss the fact that this post was a joke?

> The fact is that Dan Brown is laughing all the way to the bank

The author seems fully aware that Dan is laughing all the way to the bank, and alludes to it multiple times.


IDK its funny but at the end of the day it comes off as a jealous cope by critically unacclaimed unrenowned author michael deacon masked behind comedy
