In the year 1999, this was voted as the greatest novel of the 20th century. Yet any time you discuss it on /lit/ you get pseudo intellectuals coming out against it. WTF is all your problem hating such an important work?

By the readers. It wasn't on the critics list at all. Ignore the OP

The critics list isn't perfect either but in all their top 100 neither of these authors even appeared once. Kudos at least for placing BNW a few notches above 1984. Must have seemed more relevant at the time of voting

nice """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""board"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" you got there

>>9920477
Both of those lists are incredibly shit tho. I actually prefer the memesters who rigged the reader's list with a write-in campaign to the critics who unironically call Brave New World and The Great Gatsby some of the best novels of the twentieth century.
>>
>>9920631
Are you implying that Catch-22 should be higher than Brave New World or just that they're both shit?
>>
>>9920477
All that's missing is Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
>>
>>9920634
Both are shit, but you bring up a good point that Catch-22 is probably better than Brave New World
>>
>>9920370
its boring
