Eh, he'll figure himself out. Go, anon, I believe in you. The Metamorphosis isn't all that hard to read, begin with that, OP

Cancel the first four and start with Plato

Will these books make me very witty and smart like those guys on the TV who read stuff 20 jews wrote for them and did 100 takes to get the right rapport with a great ambient ost so that the viewer is totally engrossed in the program to the point that when they cut to commercials they couldn't even tell you what they were watching because they were that vegitated by meaningless drivel blabber and jewish camerawork

I'm not ready? lmfao bud
Do you think youre Yoda or somthn

lmao nigga, im like lmao

>>8633287
Anon, do you have a good dictionary?

>>8633270
My rating won't and shouldn't effect your ability to read them or your willingness to do same.

Start on simpler things. I really don't want to see more threads by people who can't even get the point of something like The Stranger complaining about the character or incorrectly lauding his faults as "that's how I want to be".

Just please start with what we've already outlined in the sticky.

You're trying to troll /lit/ by posting a picture of chad so in return our unconscious brain will form a picture of you resembling an asshole troll? Well done

Thanks Capt Obv

Pretty transparent

I was told the IQ here was HYOOOGE, this should have been unspoken

>>8633300
>I was told the IQ here was huge

You're mistaken, the real high IQ people are not on 4chan

>>8633300

Too on the nose though like you are reading a wikihow guide to trolling.

Anyways about half of that isn't the best for starting with.

>trolling.

Is this 2006? Come on holy shit, I haven't heard this shit in a decade-
It's just a stupid gimmick to get replies, I actually ordered those books and I'm gonna give them a shot

rec me something not on the sticky, a lesser known one

DROP some ENTRY LEVEL TOMES on me niggy

>>8633308
I dunno, maybe he's doing it as a form of self-expression?

Is anonymous shitposting faggot OP actually trying to make a point about the ambient levels of pretention and wankery found herabouts?

Okay, maybe I'm being too generous.

>>8633308
also someone replying with "youre not ready" with no real constructive criticism or anything to add and me replying in kind isnt trolling

banter just banter

RECC a book based on the image tied to this post

The Count of Montecristo is a good one, The Stranger and The Metamorphisis are easy, read sparknotes on it afterwards and maybe reread it after.

Arabian Nights is a good thing to have a copy of and you could probably read Don Quixote it's long but simple and funny.

bruh, you tryna get@me?

All good except The Alchemist, which is famously, famously, famously bad.

>>8633340
something Postmodern. maybe Murakami but I haven't read enough Pomo to say for sure.

>>8633370
>which is famously, famously, famously bad.

cheers, might skip it then

>>8633270
wow you would be literally black if you add "i grow up without a father"

>>8633270
You're the perfect person for the alchemist. You get all the "meaning" out of it without minding that it's incredibly shit writing.

>>8633388
>>8633466 has a point though. You could read The Alchemist first and then move into the good shit.

I'd put Ulysses on a high shelf as something to aim for, though. I'd say at an absolute minimum you'll want to have read The Odyssey, at least some bits of the King James Bible, Dubliners and Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and have watched some Shakespeare before having a crack at it.

If you want to read something that's really feckin' Irish and really feckin' fun, though, you can try The Third Policeman.
