The question is a bit nonsense.

Who is our Bob Dylan?
Who is our David Bowie?

There are classical eras. And we definitely don‘t live in a classical era.

Today's literature is redundant.

And furthermore I give a **** on literature. Only neurotics read fictional books.

Where is Kafka in that list?

Idk, modern pedophile musicians aren't talented enough to be the new Bowie.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

All literature is redundant. The pleasure - and pain - of reading ain't.

I voted Murakami but I'm honestly pissed at how 1Q84 ended. There needs to be a book 4.
