Is Shakespeare, Dante, Cervantes, Joyce, Kafka, Dickenson, Whitman, Pessoa, etc. Really "the best that has been written?" Or is there some sort of deeper layer of books for people who are much more well read and intelligent? Same question for philosophy. What is more end game than the Phenomenology of Spirit? Is it Philosophy as a Mirror of Nature by Rorty?

Yes, there is a deeper layer in both cases.
Here's the trick - the experienced and wise reader forms the layer through his own reading and judgement.

Femboys, light of my life, fire of my loins. My angle, my devil. F-em-boys: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of from nips down the tummy to tap, at three, on the twink. F. em. boys.

Came to post this.
The deeper layer is called developing your own tastes.

If you think Hegel is better than Aristotle, Thomas, Augustine and such, then you're just a fucking autist.

There's a long forgotten list of latin American novels I found somewhere, as well as Gaddis, Pynchon, Wallace and the extremely unknown untranslatable japanese poetry and prose and the Roman poets and a book called La Medusa. Not the best but you know, way more esoteric, you get more pseud boy points

Some of those are the best, but there are many other equal greats whom you have not mentioned. And I should say, some on your list do not rank at all with the very best, Kafka is definitely not as good as Cervantes or Shakespeare.
