Proust is highly overrated. Millionaire neurotic shills proto-Lacanian nihilism for 3000 pages.
Overall you have boring taste and this is a bad bait thread. Sage!
>Tolstoy at 8.
He should be in the top 5 at least.
>no machado de Assis
>no milton

He's definitely not a top 2, that's a totally different tier. 3-10 are around the same tier
1. Shakespeare
2. Homer
3. Dante
4. Virgil
5. Petrarch
6. Milton
7. Tolstoy
8. Proust
9. Pushkin
10. Dostoyevsky
Proust wrote the best novel of the 20th century but I must may that Ulysses is the best novel of all time

umm... where's JK Rowling? She wrote 7 of the most beloved fiction books of all time. Both the Harry Potter trilogy and In search of lost time are 4200 pages long, but Rowling actually wrote her books to be halfway readable.
