Hi /lit/, I need to read a book from this list:

I'm a pleb but even I know most of them are memes, so which one do you recommend?

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 15 00:08:42 2016 No.8510601 >>8509979 One? Which ONE? Read them all! But seriously that's a lot of fucking books, if you only need to read one, pick a short story. Or look them up by title and pick what interests you. Anything you're in the mood for?

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 15 02:49:40 2016 No.8510986 >>8509979 why not pick related? Faulkner was on there, Melville, Homer. Some decent stuff. for fantasy, LOTR and The Hobbit are both on the list. what is this for?

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 15 02:54:47 2016 No.8510999 >>8509979 moby dick was the long standing greatest american novel for some time. why not start there.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 15 08:49:01 2016 No.8511540 >>8510986 I'm taking a literature course because English is not my first language and I want to improve. >>8510999 Thanks, I'll consider it, but I am almost sure that I'm going to choose Notes from the Underground, what do you think?

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 15 08:56:01 2016 No.8511549 >>8509979 This list is so patrician and diverse that you can actually pick a book you are interested in.

>>	Anonymous Thu Sep 15 12:30:27 2016 No.8512183 I'll narrow it down to five I really like. Franny and Zooey Invisible Cities Jude the Obscure Love in the Time of Cholera Moby-Dick
