all that matters to the academy is how much symbolism and shit you can pack in. vonnegut and salinger have a lot more depth than king so they get a pass for their concise prose, same as hemingway. king's more interested in the story itself and not what people think they can find hidden within the story, which i respect/enjoy cause not everything needs to be an intellectual puzzle

he writes books that the average reader can understand and this pisses off the academy to no end
