ITT:

This idea is stupid unless you also list how you liked each of those most recent books. Here are my last five:

The Magicians by Lev Grossman- pretty good, ending not great.
Ready Player One by Ernest Cline- bad
The Dream of Perpetual Motion by Dexter Palmer- good
City of Thieves by David Benioff- disappointing
The Wizard Knight by Gene Wolfe- not Wolfe's best, but still great.

It looks like you're focusing on classic pieces of literature. If you haven't read any Hemingway yet you should give him a try, I recommend "The Sun Also Rises."

>>2042498

Since you read two pieces by Vonnegut I assume you enjoyed his writing, in which case try God Bless You Mr. Rosewater.

If you liked the stuff on your list try If On a Winter's Night a Traveler by Italo Calvino.

Without knowing how you liked the books on your list it's hard to say. One recommendation that I can give is The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick, which you should read regardless of whether or not you liked Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? since High Castle is so much better.

Going through some New York Review Book Classics I see. How were Warlock and My Dog Tulip? Is Warlock still appealing to someone who hasn't read many westerns?

[Anonymous No.2042534]

I suggest The Road to Wigan Pier. Another Orwell book but a nonfiction piece.

Here's my list as much as I can remember
1) currently reading: The Gift poems by Hafiz
2) The Stranger - Camus
3) The Book of Five Rings - Musashi
The next books are from a college course (though I enjoyed them all)
4) T.S. Eliot poems (The Wasteland, The Hollow Men, J Alfred Prufrock)
5) The Fall - Camus
6) The Anti Christ- Nietzsche
Bonus books (favorites I don't feel like just posting a certain number of last read books can provide an adequate picture of one's literary interests)

Warlock is highly entertaining and is absolutely worthwhile. Great character development and plot. My Dog Tulip seems especially dated in the era of 4chan, where no one is shocked or fascinated by dog's excrements or fornications, the writing style is too familiar British early 20th century irony, however there are some tender moments of the owners love to his dog that save the book. Overall, it's not worth it, unless you are a dog lover.

If you're interested in some more amazing Latin American lit after 100 Years of Solitude (one of my favorite novels), you should give Borges a try. He's one of my favorites, and has a lot of magical realism (like Marquez), although he also plays with the idea of the infinite and the dream, as well as solitude. http://anagrammatically.com/2008/02/23/translated-la-casa-de-asterion-becomes-the-house-of-asterion/
This is quite a good sample of his work.

I have been trying to read more nonfiction stuff lately, although I can't resist the temptation to slip into fiction.

>>2044207
If you like Jane Austen, and you like fantasy, you should read Jeffrey Barlough. This is my second time recommending him in this thread and probably my 17th on /lit/ overall, I really love his work and you should really consider checking it out. It's basically dark fantasy, set in a weird alternate-universe-post-apocalypic-victorian-ice-age-california, but the real reason it rules is because Barlough is really good at writing what amounts to a pastiche of the 19th century British novel. Just really delightful books.
