>Lolita earned more votes than the fucking Bible.

>War and Peace surpassed by The Stranger and The Trial.

>The Republic, King Lear, and Grapes of Wrath all couldn't even make 10 votes.

>4 Joyce offerings, more than any other author on the list.

This board is a joke.

That's the wrong list. But you're right. The list isn't perfect, but it gives you a vague idea of which books are the best of the best.

No, the pic you posted is the discord fake
>>
>>9721674
You don't understand. Seeing it as number 3, which is higher The Divine Comedy, higher than Don Quixote, higher Shakespeare, higher than the motherfucking Bible, has made me literally, LITERALLY stopped myself from reading anymore literature from now on.

what's wrong with that?

Everyone point and laugh.

Has anyone actually read Master and Margarita? I feel like I'm the only that talks about it, and only reply I've ever gotten was an inquiry about due to interest in reading it.
>>
>>9721682
It's still a good list lol. I don't give two shits that it's an undemocratic list.
>>
>>9721729
I'm still fidgeting over which translation to pick. Needless to say, P&V is out of the question but there are so many others.
>>
>>9721729
I haven't read it, but I really want to read it because a teacher at my school (not my teacher) recommended it to me as well as some other lit memes.
>>9721755
I just got the crappy Glenny version lol.
>>
>>9721729
I'll finally get round to reading it when pigs fly ;^)
>>
>barely any non-fiction
>>
>>9721686
boo old literature is boring
>>
>>9721795
That's because non-fiction is bottom of the barrel literature.
>>
>>9721804
Then why is /lit/ so adamant with people starting with non fiction like mythology, the iliad, the odyssey, plato ect
>>
>>9721630
>anything earned more votes than The Divine Comedy

Remove this board

You don't have to stop reading literature, silly, you have to stop reading /lit/.

War and Peace is a greater work than The Stranger. It's a flawed book, but ultimately a more humanizing piece of art.
Fite me
>>
>>9721754
Your fake is still the wrong list and irrelevant to the OP
>>
>>9721643
STOP POSTING THIS FAKE ASS LIST THERE WERE NO VOTES

>>9721630
Why is the bible rated so highly? I am asking in earnest.
>>
>>9721933
good stories, good themed

oh, and you know, it's the most influential piece of literature in history, having shaped morals as we know them
>>
>>9721938
fug

themes*
>>
>>9721939
themed worked fine too

>>9721630
Wanna know how I can tell you're American?

Wanna know how I can tell you're a prick?

The Bible isn't a particularly good book. Important, obviously, but not cohesive or well written. It's full of inconsistencies and almost any conclusion you like can be draen since everything is metaphor.
>>
>>9721999
>prick
nice try, Americano!
>>
>>9721630
waaaaaahhhhhhh /lit/s fan voted favourites don't align with my personal opinion waaahhhh
>>
>>9721643
Finnegans Wake on the list at all -- I'm calling bullshit.
