Literally, start with the Greeks.

I just want to say that I appreciate what you are doing, OP.

Reading women's books is like watching women's sports

My niggas.

Also, is Carson McCullers any good? I've seen /lit/ trash and praise her at times. Give me an honest answer.

>>9116728
>being an armlet
I'm 182 cm tall. It's 190 cm between my fingertips when I stretch out my arms.

>>9116456
Wuthering heights is the only book I somewhat like written by a woman.

>>9117032

what's it like being an ape

>>9116456
Hilda Hilst and Dorothy Parker.
Ok it's actually Woolf but I wanted to give those two a mention because they deserve it.

>>9116734
pretty exciting and sexually pleasing?

Evelyn Waugh

Enid Blighton

>>9117182
It's still a waste of time though.

Willa Cather

>>9116456
Okay I can't take it anymore; what's wrong with their fucking feet?

Edith Hamilton because she started with the Greeks.

Muriel Spark

>>9116456
Tove Jansson. Barbara Comyns is a close second though.

>>9116456
Munro

>>9116456
Rosalía de Castro

>>9116456
I like Emma Goldman. No one else does though and everyone tries to call her a Feminist. How can a woman who argued against women's suffrage be a feminist? She was just an anarchist.

Susanna Clarke. She's the only modern female writer that I really enjoy.

>>9116456
Carli Claire

>>9116515

I just can't take female authors seriously. It's like they lack a certain depth of thought. I might well be wrong, I wish I was and in public would certainly say something else. Arendt and Anscombe are the only ones that spring to mind (to prove myself wrong). I have promised myself to take up Plath and Weil tho.

She was gatekeeping incarnate and her cunty attitude leaked into everything she wrote.

Laurie Halse Anderson.
Her most well know book is Speak, however my favorite book from her is Twisted. It is about a kid in high school, who becomes part of the nouveau cool but still has to deal with his shit family and kind of terrible sense of self worth.

It's another episode where they worship Carli Claire!

>>9127258
No. Tried reading her and found her fairly dull.
