The Bible

maybe Mason and Dixon? or was it before 2000? i don't know
i don't read much contemporary lit

2666 was also beautiful
impossible to read at times, but worth it

All i've learned in the last 20 years is that The Booker prize is a ridiculously silly joke.

Is that pewdiepie?

Recently finished Austerlitz and Rings of Saturn in succession. Loved them, really comfy. Austerlitz qualifies I think.
The Road is also a really good book even if it is minor Mccarthy, but minor Mccarthy is still better than most.
Ligotti's Teatro Grottesco is one of the best kafkaesque works ever.

booker prize is just a who-knows-who. all nepotism and political pandering.

He's got a big wide nose and low chin volume.

The lighting works in his favor.

I really did not appreciate how nice having hair was when I had it. And some day soon I’ll wish for the amount of hair I have now.

i cant even imagine being that inferior. you just devolve into literal pigs

Stacy wont even give this guy the time of day lmao, they only want chad. ALL WOMEN ARE WHORES!!1

Read this every night, finished it in 8 days. Its not that difficult, you don't need any complementary text. Anyone with a high school education should be able to read this. If you really want a challenge then read it in its original language.

Nothing good has been produced since the 1960's. Western civilization died in 1945 and anyone who came of age after that lacks the ability to make a great work.

I'm onto Sérotonine. Read about 2/3 of it 2 years ago but it was someone else's copy and I didn't get to finish it when I left their house. Glad to be back in ol Becqy's milieu.

I mostly read old stuff pls no bully. I'd take any recent recs. No Longer Human seems like it could be nice. I read Conspiracy against the human race and was legitimately angry at the lack of argument. I'm not an antinatalist but I don't mind exploring ideas, but I found Ligotti's tone to be embarrassing - but I will readily admit that my response to it provoked a lot of thought and I think it was worthwhile to have slogged through in a day or two

The Pale King.

Unironically the tales of Dunk and Egg series. But more specifically the Hedge Knight. Song of Ice and Fire is kinda overdone, I know, but the novellas have such an air of optimism on a bleak world. I just find Dunk not bending his values inspiring, it's not the best, but it's my favorite.

This picture is giving a hard on and i think GoT is complete trash.
