Damn... I thought lit might finally have outgrown dfw, and not only that learned how to properly place him relative to the rest of the cannon in doing so. I mean 42 is probably still a little too generous in terms of things, but not wildly inappropriate for a board like lit.

When lit! When will you mature and relegate this autistic stooge to the literary b-box where he belongs!

>ignoring me when I said I had earlier in the thread
:(
Dalkey Archive recently just put a translation that John E Woods has been working on for years and years (legendary german to english translator)
I had a girlfriend who read german and loved the original
its fantastic but I'd definitely test the water with his much shorter and simpler works to see if you'd like it first
Familiarize yourself deeply with Poe and Joyce before reading it
btw its the largest book you'll ever see
its almost as tall as my forearm and over a thousand pages

>>10243846

A fair list if you don't take the order too seriously. I agree that 95% of /lit/ would do well to try and read as many as these as possible, 100% being the ultimate achievement. The only way we make this board better is by visiting it less and less and reading more and more. It's a hard psychological breakthrough for some who are so highly addicted to the need for social contact over the internet. Dehumanize yourself and face to bloodshed. It's time to form new habits and rely less on vapid social contact from people you don't even know. I'm sure many have gained positive change from visiting this site for many years, they would probably not be the same person if they never knew about this site, but people have to grow out of their comfort zones. Go read.
