>"genre fiction is unoriginal garbage for plebs"

>>9515861
how many of those can you name? ill wait

>>9515885
Just from the top of my head:

Notes from Underground
The Stranger
Nausea
The Catcher in the Rye
Ulysses

>>9515944
Most of these don't fit at all

>>9515944
Oh so you haven't read more than half of those

>>9515885
i just read crime and punishment

>>9515954
>>9515952

I've read all of them actually, and they all fit (Ulysses mixes it up a bit of course, but basically fits).

>>9515861
Wtf you got me.

Hunger

amsterdam stories
mishima

someone should make a chart

you cant win - jack black

>>9515979
upvoted on chart

>>9515962
is this bait or are you really this horrifyingly stupid?

>>9515987
do you have an argument or do you always respond with ad hominem?

>>9515979
>>9515985

Most of Houllebecqs novels would fit too

>>9515987
are you talking about mishima? yeah. if youre talking about the chart part, and i dont know about one, then nah. but im not sure that makes me horrifyingly stupid bud. relax faggot.

>>9515987

houllebecq

Fuck off retard.

Hunger by Hamsun

wtf i hate existentialism now

Not a novel, but The Lucid Eye in Silver Town

>>9516095

Then you hate truth.

>>9516059
Stephen absolutely wanders around Dublin in Ulysses, are you dumb? He winds up the library and a bar, among other things. Also he lives in a lighthouse.

>>9516131
But he's not narrating by then, retard.

>>9516138
The action of the novel is focused on him, and we hear his thoughts. Bloom doesn't "narrate" either, strictly speaking. Neither of them do.

>>9515979
>mishima
Which one, because I don't really see it.

>>9516070
>A Group of people wander around enjoying life together through simple pleasures

>>9516099
How deliciously post-modern

>>9516175
Post-war forgettery. You'd think he could've added a dungeon crawl or boss battle or something.

>>9516026
not a young man, the guy in the book was on his 40s when it all happened

ask the dust
factotum
post office
hunger
the savage dectives
Journey to the end of the night

>>9516164
Confessions of a Mask

>>9515861
Oblomov

that kid is cool af, is this a candid photo??

>>9515944
Also Tropic of Cancer

>>9515962
More than half of Notes from Underground is written from the perspective of a 40 year old man, and the entirety of the text is dialectic.

>>9516710
he doesn't walk around a city and it takes place over his entire life up to early adulthood.

notebooks of malte briggs
nadja

crime and punishment?

>>9515944
+The Age of Reason
+The Man Without Qualities
+The Castle

>>9517765
+Amerika

>>9515861
You might as well change this to "Novel that features internal monologue" because that's what you are listing

>>9517768
+The Metamorphosis (a disillusioned young bug wanders around the ceiling--close enough)

>>9517926
+ The Gospels (ok, the city and a few towns and villages in the general area, whatever)

>>9515944
You forgot "Fathers and Sons" and "A Hero of Our TIme"

>>9516059
>Walking around rather than writing his diary and having dinner with acquaintances
MUH SEMANTICS

>>9517931
Exodus

>>9517931
+Odyssey (sure, he was more like middle aged by then, and he wanders around the Mediterranean, but what are waterways if not metaphoric streets?--you just got to keep an open mind with things like this)
