Wrong. Your thread and this thread are NOT about literature. They are about TRIPFAGS READING literature.

Do you see the distinction? Anyone can make their threads about them, but only you tripfaggots do it.

Further help discerning the difference--ere's a rewriting of this thread's OP:

>Hey, /lit/, which are some more preferable reads in the same vein of these three:

It's not real. What you call personality is really just a noticeable name.

If you really had such personality, you wouldn't need a trip at all. And you know it.

Get Invitation to a Beheading by Nabokov. His early work is great, even better than later.
