I just finished IJ today and picked up Gravity’s Rainbow. I’ve also been reading some other works too, such as Kafka, American Psycho, The Corrections, and religious dogma

I thoroughly enjoyed IJ, and I believe I will like the other 2 books. It’s really not the tour de force I was expecting or hoping for desu. I’m mainly reading the 3 meme books for a challenge, and then I will try phenomenology of the spirit.

Silly anon, that’s the old meme trilogy.

and also because the dad killed himself as well and is literally a ghost in the book

I like the idea that the meme trilogy will just get more and more difficult and obscure as time goes on. Eventually the meme trilogy will be a series of books written by /lit/ that are so esoteric that only /lit/izens will be able to read them and understand them

>>20871234
Yes, of course you are. Read the basics. Read the classics.
