Like the title says, thread is about John Kennedy Toole.
I was feeling really fucking depressed when David Foster Wallace hung himself and it inspired me to write a few chapters of a book I'll never write (they came out like complete garbage.)
I got even more depressed but decided I couldn't kill myself until I produced a truely remarkable piece of work.
Sooo...I started reading up on other authors who offed themselves and stumbled upon this author.
I've got a huge stack of books to finish reading but I've been thinking of picking up a copy of a confederacy of dunces or the neon bible...
