Ulysses

Parmenides' poem gets a lot of flak. I think they're fine to be honest, and extremely influential, I mean, EXTREMELY influential.

john green books. They're written for 13 year old girls and obviously aren't intended to compete with the cannon

Dune

Anything by Ayn Rand. Too many butthurt liberals that judge it unfairly making discussion about her work toxic

Confederacy of dunces

Also, Harry Potter.

What.

If anything, Harry Potter gets a ridiculous amount of unwarranted praise. 6/10 series, if I'm being generous. Rowling is the luckiest third rate hack writer in the world.

Stephen King is not that bad. He must've struck some kinda deal with the devil; he's insanely productive but 9 out of 10 times he shits the bed when it comes to writing endings.

The Stand had the potential to be a genuinely good work, but then it went full retard at the end.

Kek wut. Her books are horrible pulpy trash, no matter whether you agree with ideas behind them or not. If you think they have any genuine literary merit you should get shock treatment and restart with the greeks.

Most holy texts get way too much stick for the influence they've had on human history

falling for shit-tier bait

Most high school core suffers a predictable backlash. To Kill a Mockingbird is fine you twats.

On /lit/ Hitchehiker's Guide gets too much flak. Outside /lit/ it gets too much praise.

Mein Kampf

Murakami in general, on /lit/

You're right, but that doesn't stop me from laughing at how cringe a lot of it is. A lot of us also just strongly dislike Green.

Catcher in the Rye
