Thoughts on this book/ author? Last night I was reading Crime and Punishment at work (Im a valet) and some really drunk and pretentious dude came out and started telling me "Dostoyevsky is entry level college trash. If you want to experience something truly profound then read this book by Peter Heller"
So i looked this dude up and theres very little info about him online. This drunk douche claimed Heller will be considered the most prolific writer of our generation. Anyone read his shit? Is he really that good?

A literal nobody. That drunk guy was probably this "Peter Heller"

Dosto is community college-tier but fuck off petey.
>The Dog Stars is a post-apocalyptic fiction novel by Peter Heller. Set in Colorado, a man lives a lonesome existence in an airplane hangar with his dog and dour gunman he has befriended. When a mysterious transmission comes through on an old Cessna, it sparks a hunt for the provenance of the sound
WOW THIS SOUNDS HIGHLY ORIGINAL. NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE

>Dosto is community college-tier
What does this even mean? Dosto is taught in university lit classes you dense fuck. Hes widly regarded by literary critics to be one the single most important western authors ever.

>“Meager as it is. Nothing to lose as I have. Nothing is something somehow.”
