>>8446158
>inb4 muh middlemarch

>>8446169
Actually that's the only female book you need. And Invisible Man for nonwhites. I read both, and they're brilliant.

Now I never have to return

>>8446133
Judging from this thread another /lit/ milestone should be 'start posting on /pol/'

>>8446191
>being too pleb for Miss Macintosh

>>8446191
Waves, Jane Eyre

>>8446191
Wuthering Heights.

>>8446203
That a milestone in deprogramming the nu-male propaganda, and is not necessarily related to /lit/

finished all of the important existentialism canon

Translating Heidegger into Russian.

>>8446191
And that's the Communist's novel that OP's Communist Baby claims he based his autobiography on.

>>8446964
Why would people call Obama a communist? Isn't it a bit early for american /lit/?

More pics saved of DFW than pages of ij read

Teach me your secrets. I quote him virtually every other day, and have to google the spelling every fucking time.

>>8447209
If you care about other people, then you're a socialist ie a communist by burger standards.

>>8447337
Nietz + sche

>>8446158
That's because 99.9% of the good literature and philosophy was written by white males. Not even hard desu.

>>8447342
So why would you call Obama a communist?

>>8447217

This

>>8447342
>care about other people
You think Obama actually cares about lower classes? Or is he exploiting them? Not everything is that black and white.

What do you think is helping poor people by giving them free social security checks? How is that helping them to improve their quality of life?

If you really wanted to improve someones quality of life, you'd help them get a job and pay them more for doing it. Handouts help keep poor people trapped in the same spot.

>can understand Shakespeare without constantly referring to the notes

>>8450154
This. I mean, Rand is a disgusting piece of shit in almost every regard, but goddamn I can't help but love both Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. Delving into her psyche is simply fascinating.

Let me check

am I a pleb?

>>8450170
Alright, honestly. I mean, I think both Wallace and Pynchon are too often bogged down in there own self-aggrandizing complexity to really say as much as people give them credit for, but in spite of this remain quite thought-provoking.

James Joyce, on the other hand, is complete meme tier garbage -- trading off any semblance of actual complexity in favor of boorish, ham-fisted prose that will boggle the mind of the intellectually deficient, but serve only to irritate those of a higher standard. Or, in other words, is praised for taking a massive shit on the English language.
