>> No.26716

Anything by Kafka, White Noise, The Odyssey, Dubliners and Portrait of the Artist, and pretty much anything written by McCarthy. All this stuff is really easy to read and does sincerely fire up the neurons.

ok dont listen to this cunt, he's pretending to be some elitist but any uni student (i would know because im currently in my second year) would read or have come across those texts and, honestly, people read them more for the sake of itw . If you want some good books (beyond cormac) look at anyone like euginedes; zadie smith; ian mcewan; michael cahbon; junot diaz
