I think I'm in the wrong forum

[dtk]

Hey,
I've noticed that people on this forum seem to frown upon Bukowski. I'm guessing there would be similar reactions to Palahniuk. I also enjoy Vonnegut and some Huxley. I was just wondering if there was a section on this forum dedicated to raw 'uneducated' writing, and if not, then maybe someone could redirect me to a more low-brow environment.
Cheers.

heh, well, I don't know about being so high-brow around here ... just check out what they're talking about in General Chat (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=10) :D

If you've not already done so, you could search the General Literature forum (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=4) [Huxley has his own... (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=149)] and find many discussions on the authors you have mentioned.

Or, if would be cool if you started your own thread about raw 'uneducated' writing.

Hey man, I love Bukowski and Vonnegut. Palahniuk isn't bad either.

Cheers, I found Huxley's thread shortly after posting (thanks Logos).
The few searches I did for Bukowski turned up some talk of him being over-rated (a point that I've come across so often that it simply bores me) and not so much discussion of his life and work. I think it would be good to start up a thread if there isn't one.
cheers for all the replies

We're not too uppity around here;) Start any thread that you would like, and see what comes of it. By the by, I like Vonnegut and I may have to give Huxley a try. I'm always up for something new... when I actually find some time to read that is. Welcome to LitNet:D
