So I've been reading The Collector recently, and am enjoying it. But all I can think is, 'My God, Frederick is /r9k/ personified.'

So, ITT: Novels and the boards they're perfect for.

>> No.2792616

Confederacy of Dunces or Welcome to the NHK and /jp/

>> No.2792624

Oblomov for the entire board.

>> No.2792625

Lolita and /b/

Battle Royale and /k/

Godel Escher Bach and /x/

>> No.2792627

Infinite Jest - /lit/

>> No.2792628

The Double by Dostoevsky's main character, Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin, is just like the stories from /v/ about going to gamestop and spilling spaghetti. He's that guy exactly.

VALIS as /x/.

No way, man, Lolita is definitely /tv/. I've never seen that many pedophiles in one place.

God, I sound like a forty year old woman.

I have met many lovely 40 year old women.

Ugh. I just threw up in my mouth a little at the thought of his name.

Fuck him, /b/ can have him.
