The Great Gatsby is a Great American Novel and you can’t change that.

>> No.21934034

>>21934029
There is only ONE Great American Novel. I don't know what it is but it definitely is not Great Gatsby. Fitzgerald may have been better suited as a screenwriter as it is a very heavy-handed, grotesque work with very little joy in the medium. It's an okay yarn but not serious literature.

Maybe I'm just dumb but I dont think that the stranger is all that good. Its not that bad, just not God tier.

The Great Gatsby, Atlas Shrugged, The Stranger, and The Count of Monte Cristo shouldn't be in God-Tier, especially the first 2. The Great Gatsby is the worst classic probably ever, of course Americans have no culture to show, so they promote the fuck out of that stupid book, but I don't blame them. Most countries that have no outstanding achievements other than one mid-tier literature is hailed as the GOAT anyhow. Atlas Shrugged should be in Shit-Tier, whether you agree or disagree with its political message, it's just a poorly written book, Les Miserables and The Count of Monte Cristo should be in High-Tier also. The Stranger should be in Middle-Tier
High-Tier looks alright, but take out How To Read A Film because movies are an inferior medium to books in almost every way, and take out For Whom the Bell Tolls since it's not that good of a book
Ulysses and The Trial being that low is a crime. Clifford is a memebook, Sartre shouldn't even be on the list & should be forgotten, and Kanye West is a retard. Grapes of Wrath was decent enough but I would personally put that in High-Tier.
Notes From Underground, Hamlet, Brave New World, and David Copperfield should never be that low, One Hundred Years of Solitude should be in High-Tier, and Catch-22 should be in the Middle-Tier
The Lord of the Rings and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel should be in God-Tier, Huckleberry Finn should be in Middle-Tier, and I agree with the Shit-Tier.

Great Gatsby is the greatest european novel written by an American. I'm not going to waste time to justify this argument in literary form on random forum. But tis a true nethertheless.

Sincerely top-tier bait. The simple assertion that Ulysses is worse than 1984 or Rand wrote anything approaching Brave New World, let alone surpassing it or One Hundred Years of Solitude, is so infuriating that it has to be complimented.
