Total bait post but No she wont be tbqh cuh. Shes basically a pop lit poet of little literary recognition. Shit, a good chunk of nobel laureates in literature from pre ww2 are already essential forgotten.
Best case scenario in terms of legacy (unless her subsequent work improves dratically) in 100 years shes an asterisk in a textbook chapter on transition from print to digital/social media.
>. Shit, a good chunk of nobel laureates in literature from pre ww2 are already essential forgotten.
List five-six of them. >inb4 can't tell as they're forgotten.
>people don't remember Rudyard Kipling, Yeats, Thomas Mann, George Bernard Shaw, Henri Bergson, Anatole France...
Wut? Apart from random Scandis and shit who got the prize because it was nepotism, most of them are still famous
The last 10 Nobel laureates in literature are all jokes and only one of them is worth a damn because it was Ishiguro. You couldn’t name them if you tried because they are nobodies that got what is essentially a diversity medal now. You’re a reactionary moron with a midwit iq.
>remembered
Who fricking cares. She got rich and broke out of the matrix writing silly little poems for dumb women. Now she can do whatever she wants and doesnt have to slave away from 8-5 in a cube. Can you say the same?
Honestly this lol
Makes me think of all those artists seething at Damian Hirst when he sold out his art show for like $250 mill because they said anyone could do his “art”
He responded “But none of you did it, did you?”
She wrote the poems sincerely however which makes all the difference. Her popularity was also essentially the equivalent of winning the lottery and deserves about as much respect as that. You won’t tempt me, Satan.
Idk if Id call it sincere, lol. She basically just formatted basic white girl IG captions into poems and got a publishing deal. Maybe she was young enough to believe in them at first but no way she put out like 4 more books of that for anything but the money. Her last book was hardcover only and retailed for like $30. Altogether the text would maybe fill 4 pages
>Her popularity was also essentially the equivalent of winning the lottery
She’s from a wealthy family with a lot of connections in publishing. Her fame was literally handed to her.
>Indian-born Canadian poet, illustrator, and author Rupi Kaur has an estimated net worth of $1.2 million dollars, as of 2023.
HOLY SCHNIKES, SHE'S RICH!!!
Didn't she basically write a poem about her fantasy of squatting on a white man's face and tickling his nose with what she called her "honey sweet brown bearded quim?" How's that not racist and androphobic as f*ck?
I already don't remember her, because I don't fricking know who she is. I'll forget her very soon too. God forbid being remembered as a female writer, I know what I think about the female writers I know and it's not even the worse I've seen.
the last time poetry mattered was with the modernists like ezra pound and elliott. This b***h is famous but not her poetry. She is there for dumb white b***hes to signal how cultured they are. Its all about aesthetics. ask yourself why the term instagram poet became a thing, its a fricking service based on pictures not writing
There's a fart singer (a guy who sang through his anus) from late 1800's France who's probably more remembered today than, say, an obscure but good author like Teophile de Viau. Probably more people everyday read and remember something about "that fart singer, heheh..." than about de Viau.
Yet no living person has intellectually engaged with the fart singer, while certainly some of the most intelligent living persons, including poets, historians, philosophers, a few scientists etc., have read and engaged with at least one or two poems by Teophile de Viau, specially in France; another way of saying it is that the average knower of the fart singer is a trivia-knowing moron, while the average reader of de Viau is an academic or independent scholar with a higher than average IQ, or at least a good student, given that the type of poetry he writes cannot be understood by idiots.
I'd rather be remembered as a good author by three or four genuinely good authors of the future, in the same way Vathek was only remembered by few men, but those men were Borges, Mallarmé and other such, than by billions of imbeciles.
In fact, I, like most good authors (including supposedly popular ones like Flaubert), specifically design my writings so that they will be very tough reading on imbecilic peoples, and even if an imbecile reads one of my books he will completely misunderstand it and be recognized as incompetent by those 'happy few' who possess what he lacks, i.e., a brain.
for five minutes maybe. How many historic cultural figures has the past already forgot?
I’d rather be remembered by very few people for somethingworthwhile than many people for something mediocre.
Her audience is mostly emotionally vulnerable little girls on Instagram.
She's a blood-sucking leech of the worst kind.

Who could forget
Selma Lagerlöf
Grazia Deledda
Sigrid Undset
Rabindranath Tagore
Eugene O'Neill
Do you really know these people?
>Rabindranath Tagore
He's still well known, right? He wrote the Indian national anthem. He's the guy who named Gandhi 'Mahatma'.
And the Bangladeshi national anthem as well. He's not exactly obscure by any means.

Bob Dylan will be remembered longer than Ishiguro
I don’t know who that is but I know who I am

Based. Some of his stuff looks cool as frick compared to a bunch of other pop artists.

thats the appeal tho, simple dumb b***h
simple dumb b***h shit*, i dont think actual poetry readers care about her, just IG thots that pretend to read
>i dont think actual poetry readers care about her, just IG thots that pretend to read
In my experience this is the case.
>Her popularity was also essentially the equivalent of winning the lottery

HOLY SCHNIKES, SHE'S RICH!!!
She always was.
Lmfao no she won’t
who?
Rupi Kaur, author of Milk and Honey.
Why is nobody posting her feet?
She is considered passe now among instagram hoes.
There are hundreds of subcontinental writers better than her. She's more of a pseud than IQfy
HAHAH that Cut article was top notch trolling
50 years from now students will write their thesis on Woolston, his life and works.
have a nice day you fat frick. I'm going to jerk off to this picture of your daughter.

How come wypipo only popularize jeets/jeetas who are mogged by random/ blue collar worker/random housewife on streets of Delhi? I suspect a conspiracy
Didn't she basically write a poem about her fantasy of squatting on a white man's face and tickling his nose with what she called her "honey sweet brown bearded quim?" How's that not racist and androphobic as f*ck?
>androphobic as f*ck
Go back
I already don't remember her, because I don't fricking know who she is. I'll forget her very soon too. God forbid being remembered as a female writer, I know what I think about the female writers I know and it's not even the worse I've seen.
she won't and there is even a chance she will be already forgotten in her lifetime, it's just a fad
She won't be remembered. I will.
>carves name into bronze tablet
>carries it into the alps
checkmate, celebrity-brains
Based historical permanence anon
>history revisionists hate this one simple trick
She has not said a word worth remembering OP, she comes and goes with the times, like Yung Pueblo. Like all of us.
Everyone is forgotten in the long run. This is precisely why we need great writing.
To survive in this dreadful world.
Now hush and go read.
>She will be remembered
by all the guys she gave herpes to
You don't pass btw
>some literally who woman
Yeah, uh-huh.
Who
>being remembered on a prison planet run by the taliban
Literally who?
