Fuck 1000 page tomes. The meme trilogy should be A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, The Crying of Lot 49, and The Broom of the System.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 16 23:52:49 2020 No.15627124 DFW is a meme and over time people will realize that he was not a significant writer. I actually support the efforts by some Anons here to replace him with Gaddis, because Gaddis actually IS a great writer, or at least he's a better writer than DFW.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 16 23:57:32 2020 No.15627154 Why would you put The Crying of Lot 49 twice on the same list? the real trilogy is FW/JR/TPK

He's written only six books, all are pretty good, some are masterpieces. The Recognitions and JR being the ones that stand out the most. Out of the two, The Recognitions is a better starting point, if you're not quite ready for a doorstopper, you could try starting with either Carpenter's Gothic or A Frolic of His Own to sample his style of writing and to see if you're ready for it.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jun 17 00:35:01 2020 No.15627345 >>15627168 Start with any of his books except JR because JR is by far the most difficult
