/lit/ - Literature

Make notes when you read. I've seen a ton of tricks people do. If it's not a difference in temperament, some characters seem to talk faster or slower, have different grammar, different vocabulary. If you want to write things the way people pronounce things, you also make readers hear how the voice sounds different. The biggest thing you want though is for characters to not always agree or see things the same way. When I started reading "Remains of the Day" I thought, oh all these British butlers are going to be the same. But they weren't, and it helped me remember them.

Alice in wonderland! All of Lewis Carroll, Sylvia and Bruno is underrated

plenty to get me started, thanks for the reccs everyone.
please accept this silly picture of a cat as a token of my appreciation.

Any suggestions for books that satisfy the following criteria:

>set in summer
>male protagonist
>the male protagonist is lonely, depressed, sad, angst filled, etc.

Preferably "classic" type literature.

Misery loves company.

Hi /lit/,

Please recommend me some angtsy, depressing, sexually frustrated literature by males of European ancestry written in their 20s to 40s.

Authors of this sort I have read an enjoyed:
>dfw
>orwell
>hemingway
>camus
>vonnegut
>dostoyevsky
>tolstoy

Kafka was too hard for me.

Yeah, I know that list is pleb/basic as fuck, but whatever that's my problem not yours.

Thanks in advance!
