why don't you like Araby? It's the fucking best.

Very patrician choices OP.

I read that my first semester at semester undergrad along with Scarlet Letter, House of the Seven Gables, Nine Stories, Raise High the Roof Booms and Seymour an Introduction, Lolita, One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest, and On the Road the original scroll. That was my side reading along with a Shakespeare class where we read about seven plays, and another lit class.

It's been a while since I've read that much. I'm having this weird aversion to fiction at the moment but I'm assuming it's temporary.

I really enjoyed my time reading Dubliners but don't remember many specifics.

Thanks for reading my blog, brehs.

Weird I was about to start this tonight but I started The Odyssey instead. I can't wait to read it.

I read Araby in high school and the last line has stayed with me to this day. It's an amazing short story.

God damn it why did i read this whole post. I learned nothing lol

The Dead is in a class of its own. Other than that, I can never decide between Araby, Clay and A Painful Case. They're all great. The one about Irish local politics though went way over my head and I could never be bothered enough to look up the necessary background to understand what was going on.

I like the one where that old man diddles those boys.

Or the one that mirrors dantes inferno/purgatorio/paradiso.

Araby fucking broke me.

Yup. The one with Little Chandler. "If only he could do something to recall that feeling he had earlier on that bridge".

Also... Evelinn if you're serious about women. Araby if you're still living in a bubble of shitty female ideology.
