none you fucking idiots. read a real author like hawkes, gaddis or beckett. fucking morons.

Dhalgren isn't really that hard...its just weird

Gravity's Rainbow is pretty difficult, but obviously Ulysses iscleary a notch or two above GR in the challenging department

I don't think so.

>>8368563
I love Hawkes and Gaddis but I've never read anything by Beckett. Where should I start with him?
>>
The Legend of the 10 Elemental Masters

until you get through that stop posting this meme shit
>>
>>8368648
yeah I don't think so either
Ulysses is harder on a prose level, but Gravity's Rainbow is more thematically complex and narratively tangled

for someone who espouses some kind of intellectual superiority based on your literary taste, you post like a dumb sack of shit.

Surely, you're jesting, right?

>>8368549
Finnegans Wake slays all three.

>>8368549
Ulysses is much, much more stylistically difficult. It had so many more "okay what the fuck is he talking about now" moments than GR, maybe that's just because I tend to write off confusing/unreal scenes and events as dream sequences or Pynchon gettin surreal on us.

Never read Dhalgren so I couldn't say.
