Sup lit

Let's update (or create a new) patriciancore chart.

Rules: You can nominate 1 to 5 books that are rarely discussed here but you consider are PATRICIAN (and if you want, share why)

Each reply to a nomination is a vote

I'll create a chart with the most voted books

Let's have some fun

I'd pick the Calvino anthology, it's AMAZING
>>17249649
Montaigne is mentioned here but never discussed properly. He's the best, that's my fav book.
Also Potocki is unbelievable, a wild arrange of craziness and imagination in that single book, epic.

You’re fortunate to be able to read Andalusian literature in Spanish. I’m stuck reading Moorish casidas and later works by Lorca, Vallejo, Aleixandre, Jimenez... not too mention Paz, Neruda, Rios, Borges...the list goes on and on... in English or Italian.

I wanted to nominate Fantômas, but then I started to feel silly because the focus will be just on the first book, when one has to read the series as a whole (or at least first few books) to fully grasp the awesomeness of it.
