Probably Catcher in the Rye. Talk about the role of molestation and rape in the subtexts.

Gravity's Rainbow.
Since no one has ever read it, you could write whatever you want and nobody will notice you're full of shit.

It's a joke, I've read it but I'm sure that at least half of the fags who are pynchonmemeing 24/7 on /lit/ haven't.

No doubt the easiest are 1984 or Animal farm

I hated Animal Farm.

I hated both of them because they're too direct. It feels like you're reading blatant anti soviet/authoritarian propaganda.

Yea, basically. I only read some of 1984.

It's supposed to be, but Orwell could have presented his anti authoritarian/anti soviet views in a more literary and eloquent way. He basically just wrote an ideological pamphlet
