Rimbaud - A Season in Hell

Proust's Combray was top-tier too, but it's just one half of the first book so I guess I can't really judge it yet.

Just fucking read it christ. Why do you need someone else to tell you about their personal experience with the book instead of making some time for the book, which is a timeless classic, and experience it for yourself? Are you that devoid of insight or are you just gonna use the book to get some false sense of /lit/cred?

Surprised that no one wrote The Life Before Us by Émile Ajar (Gary Romain). It's on par with Les Miserables in terms of emotional impact.
