For me, it's Vonnegut and Melville. Dickens and Salinger had their moments. Hemingway obviously.

Realistically Joyce is a meme answer, and a good way to spot wannabe intellectuals.

>dante number 1

pynchon

Where is Borges???

Ted Kacsynski is actually good though

In no particular order

Shakespeare, Dante, Dostoevsky, Borges

2-infinity: who gives a fuck

1. Me

The novel keeps its foot in the social life of the 18th century, though it continually implies supernatural forces that influence the main character, who is linked to a mystical jade that wants to learn about human existence. Jia Baoyu is a little earthier than that, which gets him in a lot of trouble, but he is also stuck in a love triangle between the ethereal Lin Daiyu, who also comes from the other world, and the worldlier Xue Baochai. The book itself combines meticulous observations of psychology of Baoyu's falling aristocratic family and the visionary sweep of Water Margin and Journey to the West. Baoyu is always searching for enlightenment, whether he knows it or not, and even can see the mystical futures of his female cousins -- they are destined to emerge after death in the other world -- but he never forgets his human side, so he has to contend with some of the same social problems of his time which are gradually destroying his family.

Why is there never love for the tragedians?
Sophocles, Aeschylus, and or Euripides are definitely worthy of a top 10 spot.

god no, it is - read because its old type shit - and cant be even comparable with modernity

Did you just learn what a hyphen is?

As long as Dostoevsky isn't in the top 20, I'm okay with any list

As long as Dostoevsky is in the top 3, i'm okay with any list

Yeah I agree, just found some new writers on BookCamp that absolutely BTFO out of those classicuks. Anyone here ever heard of Bobby Hall and based Chuck Palahniuk? Dropped redpills like left and right, Shakespeare is just overrated anglo-trash, and Joyce is just rambling from an Irishdrunk.

TLDR: Fuck off, retard.

if you're an edgy 12 year old, sure

How can you guys tell if a writer is good. Sure I have a "feeling" when I read something that tells me if it's well written or not but I don't have a more rigorous method than trusting that feeling. How do you guys do it?

Yeah I agree, just found some new writers on BookCamp that absolutely BTFO out of those classicuks. Anyone here ever heard of Umberto Eco and based Elias Canetti? Dropped redpills like left and right, Shakespeare is just overrated anglo-trash doesnt even wrote in prose, and Joyce is just rambling from an Irishdrunk. Dante also is just shity fanficker

Eco and Canetti aren't new, and at least the former gets mentioned plenty around here. Shakespeare wrote plenty of prose, Joyce is precise, and Dante is far more than fan fic.

absolutely based selection.

Dostevesky
Hunter Thompson
Camus
Heidegger
Blake
Hemingway
Iceberg Slim
Rene Girrard

What is with the obsession with Dostoevsky and Tolstoy on this board?

Two hacks and none of you can even read them in the original Russian.
