As if this makes a novel good. I could understand the following if people didn't rabidly try to defend Severian and simply accepted him as a lying sociopath. Instead they try to pretend there's some depth that isn't present.

to me, he was probably the most unlikable protagonist I've had the displeasure to walk alongside on a fictional road trip, I can understand people defending the series, but never defending this insufferable omega-autist.

there is no need for a new meme trilogy but if a new one should arise, I would make it something like this

>in ulysses' seat
moby dick, don quixote, ada, or ardor, or ezra's the cantos

>in the place of GR
women and men, the tunnel, the recognitions, barth's letters or giles goat-boy

>in place of IJ
borges' collected fictions, 2666, delillo's underworld, bely's petersburg, schmidt's zettel's traum

rate, fags
(didn't want to put other works of the same writers on the current trilogy such as mason & dixon, against the day, finnegans wake)

i vote Dick, sot-weed factor, underworld.
