Omg r u in high school!???

Try intellectuality and read Pynchon's gravity's rainbow

Beware, it's postmodern and has lots of pop culture references, it is very deep 4 you

It's a great book. Yes, high-school tier, but I recently read it again and it holds up nicely.

I'm not american/english you dipshit. Not every single country in the world reads this book at school. Now fuck off.

Thank you. I know it's highcshool-tier, that's exactly why I asked if it's a good read regardless of age. Will probably give it a read.

It's good regardless of age, but this one is often taught because the symbolism and thematic elements are easily apparent. So it might seem a bit hamfisted if you have more experience with literature, but it is still a great book.
