List of Meme Books:

(Whether good or bad, books /lit/ has picked up and talked about significantly for a portion of time)

>The Ego and Its Own

>Stoner

>No Longer Human

>The Leopard

What am I missing? Doesn't count if its just the hype around release (e.g. bleeding edge)

infinite jest

how the fuck did you forget infinite jest

Because that's rather proportionate to regular young lit circles. Of course it's a meme, but it wasn't picked up for circulation for a month or two in an unofficial book-club manner like Stoner was, it's a different kind of meme.

Book of the new sun

>> No.7371446

>>7371408
Just read this for the first time (original tetralogy, haven't read urth or long sun and short sun yet)
I think it was the greatest fantasy/scifi story I ever have read.
