I haven't read a book in 11 years. What's a good one

try ulysses

to elaborate, you'll either adore it and transform into a higher being who enjoys eating shit and drinking piss, or you'll realize reading is not for you and find a more fitting hobby, such as being a footstool for readers.

read short stories

Try something like Dosto's Notes from the Underground, Kafka's Metamorphosis or Tolstoy's Dead of Ivan Illyich

If you like whatever you start with then try their longer works.

Death in Midsummer and Other Stories by Yukio Mishima

A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole

It's funny and a classic. Much better for a new reader than fucking ulysses

Eh, I didn't like it much. If you are looking for something funny try Vonnegut. Slaughterhouse five is probably what you should read.

Phenomenologie des Guystes + Finnegan's Wake =The purrfect pear

Stoner.
It will make you care about stuff you never thought you would care about.

Whatever you like, please stop this "reading is hard" meme

If you hadn't seen a film in 11 years you would be asking which would be easiest

I'd make that thread on /tv/ but I'm too lazy.

Do you like science fiction? Then Snow Crash.
Do you like "serious literature"?" Then My Struggle vol. 1.
Do you like fantasy? Then The Hobbit.
