“Sudden outburst of digestive vulgarity. Discovery of a joyous shitting communism.” I’m in stitches 😂

I'm loving the dark, brutal prose, but the irony of Céline's life is wild. He nails WWI as a meaningless meat grinder run by crazy elites who treat the poor like cattle, and yet by the late 30s, his dread of another war morphed him into a fascist fanboy. Dude actually pushed for an alliance with Hitler to "avoid war" literally backing the exact monster that started the biggest war ever!
