Regarding “Jude the Obscure”:

Fuck this guy.

Fuck this book.

Gross. Cheap tales of misery. And death and poverty despair, etc. Like when they get kicked out of their last little hovel and they find the two babies and the little boy hanging in the closet from cords around their necks with a note that says “becuz we are too menny”. Oh good one, buddy that deserves a sideways smiley face 🙂

This entire work seems bent on making one point, which is that marriage is a bad idea. That’s it. What an horrible man to drag readers through all that crap just to make such a point. And ya know what’s worse? I still don’t believe him. Wtf?!

Anyhoo, the guy is an amazing writer so I’m gonna do a little research and see if The Madding Crowd is his only non-tragedy. Jezuz I feel like I’ve been through the wars.

Oh and btw, I read “Tess” only up until she gets raped by the wealthy shitbag dude.

Right, good ol’ Tom Hardy. Jerk.

Alright, I’m having a fucked up relationship with ol’ Tom Hardy now. He’s a sado-masochist. I think I hate him……or rather am disappointed and a little grossed out by how he chose to spend his genius. He seems to have totally derailed to total bitterness at some point.

I have tried to start three more of his bigboys and all of them are simply tragedies wherein good and wonderful people are slowly tricked and trapped into small and mean peoples awful little worlds. It is a slow and painful demise based mostly on our vain desires for other people and how its always the wrong people that we desire most. We die dirty cold wet and starving and sad and lonely.

Gross.

Damn, I can’t put myself through that right now in my life but I just love reading this guy’s sentences. They’re just amazing. And I love going into this guys world and being there for hours.

Dammit.
