Are popular success and literary merit mutually exclusive?

I'm not some garden variety, youtube-commenting cynic. As I see it, there are particular things that make a book widely liked, and usually that involves being relatable to working class people and avoiding latinate (or even slightly unusual) vocabulary.

Literary merit tends to be awarded by academics, who live lives of security and eccentricity, and as such value risk-taking and eccentric books that don't appeal to working class people.

I'm interested to hear your opinions, contrary and otherwise, /lit/.

What are some resources to help you start writing or how to write at all?

Books, movies, interviews?
