>nigger of narcissus
kek'd and thanks for all the others. Are some supernatural elements in those novels? I'm ok if not but I would really love some sort of Pirates of Caribbean like book that would be actually good and without the goofiness. Some that would explore the myths and legends.

Oh and what about Jules Verne? Never read anything from him to be desu, with what should I start? I've read that there is a sequel of sorts to arthur gordon pym but that it is no longer in the eerie tekeli-li note it ended on.

Jules Verne is interesting because of his technological foresight, but his works are about on the level of a not-so-interesting lovecraft. Journey to the Center of the Earth has that awful 19th century pulp feel in reading.

My father only read stuff like this once every few years, and I think i disappointed him by having no interest in baseball whatsoever.

>>9126838
Good dad desu. I never enjoyed those books as a kid and grew into them, it seems like we just have it reversed it

Are books about the sea essential dadcore? Why is that the case

>>9126771
From Conrad, also Lord Jim.

The many filmed versions of Frankenstein have led to the amnesiac side-effect that the entire frame narrative in the book is a tale of ocean exploration.

Don't forget about Rime of the ancient mariner. You can find a PDF easily

>no interest in baseball whatsoever

Give it time. After you've read for 20-30 years, you get bored of all the "monkey's tricks" and turn to things like athleticism and finance.

Literature is nice, but there's a point where it's just lingering way too long in someone else's dreams.

...I'm 35. I enjoy MMA and Olympic skiing but baseball is awful
