idk honestly

I mean, Moby Dick is imo the greatest novel ever written-- but most else of Melville's comes nowhere close to it.

Faulkner though wrote like four masterpieces consecutively, it blows my mind. one masterpiece per year for four or five years is just insane

anyway no other american writers can touch them (inb4 gass or nabokov)
