some poetry so he doesn't end up being a troglodyte. Dickinson, Plath, Sexton maybe?
I'm not saying women are good writers but jeez one of those could be replaced. A woman has definitely written a better book than Fahrenheit-451.

>not brave new shit
Fahrenheit is infinitely better than that shit
>>8328824
>one flew over the cuckoo's nest
Nope.
At least one epic
Paradise Lost maybe since it's English

I haven't read Fahrenheit 451 but I've read pamphlets in megachurches that were better than everything Aldous Huxley ever wrote.

When I was 17 I was already reading post-modern philosphers.
Also your 17 yo cousin is probably you yourself.
