/lit/ - Literature

Post a mosaic that presents your top 9 favourite books of all time.

You. You are strongest kid, you are the strongest.

This is the closest I've ever encountered to a literary equivalent to Theory Of Everything.

I just think it's a shame that people spend hunderds of hours on those tales while there are so many hundreds of greater litreture work in hand.

As a non-American I have only recently engrossed in the beautiful poetry of Robert Frost, and I haven't been that excited about discovering a poet in quite some time.

What are your favorite Frost's work?

Also, general Robert Frost thread.

Sorry, I admit my mistake. I understand that you expect a different level from me.

So I guess that Mister gonna get much Mo' Yen now.

It probably means the neurons in your brains just kind of slow.
That is unless it has something to do with some sort of social problem.

Pretty much the only fantasy novel that I loved when I was 12 and I can go back to and appreciate now.

Yes, the book streches for too long and has its downsides, but it's still a damn great novel.

You sound 12, but here are a few good books for "meaning construction" that may get you somewhere:

The Plague / Camus

The death of Ivan Ilyich, The Kreutzer Sonata / Tolstoy

The Corrections/ Franzen

Beyond Sleep / Willem Frederik Hermans

Kafka on the shore is a masterpiece.

Norwegian Wood is one of my all time favorites, but it is completely different in style, a minor novel that sheds the surreal, epic on scale writing that Murakami is known for, for some heartbreaking coming to age literature.

Avant-garde?

Dude, there are people here who are yet to read Tolstoy.

I think that showing to class instead of posting on 4chan will be a good start of smart time planning

My OC nigga.

Looking for Alaska was the only one I've read and I dislike it- not that it was a bad novel, but I don't see the appeal for people over 18.

His vlogs are damn fantastic, though.

I'd like to read an Hemingwey's biography. What would you recommend me?

My family is the Jewish Nation, and we are as uncasual as it can get.

Here's a fantasy for you: read good literature.

Yes, in 100 years Twilight will be taught in highschools. There is no good literature today, and never in history bad books have been published.

Why haven't you read this yet, /lit/?

I think this one would be prefect.

Holy shit, did this dude just invented the Book Club?
