/lit/ - Literature

Say you're applying for a book store, and the paper asks you to list some of your favorite books.

What are some of the absolute worst things you could list?

Hey /lit/, want to talk about books?

Hey /lit/ I need you to decide what I read until my Tao Lin arrives.(On Friday I'm probably reading The Invention of Morel with Brownbear)
So I'll give a list of about 5 books on my shelf, you guys pick two and I'll see what you come out with and I'll read it/them.

Boxer Beetle - Ned Beauman
The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald
Slaughterhouse 5 - Kurt Vonnegut
The Thirty-Nine Steps - John Buchan
The Wasp Factory - Iain Banks

bump?

If you don't mind.

Looks like nobody wants to talk about literature or just have a chat.

I thought the same when I read it, it didn't live up to what I'd heard about it.
Although it definitely picked up about halfway through and I enjoyed the last few chapters. Stick at it, it's worth it.

In regards to other dystopian fiction I haven't really read much but I found The Road and A Clockwork Orange to be extremely enjoyable reads.

Can /lit/ recommend me some plays? The last one I read was Ibsen's A Doll's House.
I have Othello next on my to-read list.
