Hi /lit/, I need to read a book from this list:

I'm a pleb but even I know most of them are memes, so which one do you recommend?
>>8509979
One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich is a great book

One? Which ONE? Read them all!
But seriously that's a lot of fucking books, if you only need to read one, pick a short story. Or look them up by title and pick what interests you. Anything you're in the mood for?

So I used to read a lot but because of time and other reasons I quit, I know that was stupid but I want to start reading again. I'm looking for entry level literature that will keep me entertained

Actually I am looking for philosophy or fiction/fantasy books.

This post reeks of Reddit.

why not pick related?
Faulkner was on there, Melville, Homer. Some decent stuff.
for fantasy, LOTR and The Hobbit are both on the list.
what is this for?
>>8509979
moby dick was the long standing greatest american novel for some time.
why not start there.

This list is so patrician and diverse that you can actually pick a book you are interested in.
I'll narrow it down to five I really like.
Franny and Zooey
Invisible Cities
Jude the Obscure
Love in the Time of Cholera
Moby-Dick

Of mice and men is short, like less than an hour of reading
plenty to bullshit about in a paper
