Even Natasha was better
>>
>>7432071
War and Peace is not as simple as that.

It's about life, death, destiny, love etc.
>>
Ludmilla from If ON Winter's Night a Traveller, but I'm so glad I married her and am living happily ever after with my book loving beloved after I went on so many improbably adventures.... right guys?
>>

>life, death, destiny, love


Yeah thats what I said, drinking and fighting.
>>
>>7432109
yes, getting shitfaced and fighting wars.
>>
>>7432125

Why? She has literally no personality.

Dunya from Crime and Punishment is decent obviously. Marya is... okay I guess, her brother is my non homosexual husbaindu; and obviously Natasha is a massive bitchwhore so she's out.

Jane Eyre is probably the best regarding literary waifu material.

All that Natasha has going for her is her looks. She is foolish and young. She lacks morality and judgment.

I can not see how you could think of her as a waifu.

Sue Bridehead from Jude the Obscure

that's the fucking point

After cheating on her fiancee with a literal scumbag who was just attractive and then seeing him die.

Real nice. It pissed me off a lot that Andre forgave her on his deathbed and almost ruined his character for me desu.

>implying she would love you and not her first love which she lost

You know I'm right.

He was delusional due to his wounds.

Andre, the dutiful hero that he was should not have forgiven that foolish whore.

also oh no, not people liking the characters from a novel!

look, if you came here from /a/, /v/, and /pol/ this is probably not the place for you. /lit/ is a comfy board for discussing dfw, reading nooks, waifus, pinecone, and ASoUE.

If you liked Animal Farm and The Stranger, maybe read TCoL49, Hemingway, Orwell's Politics and the English Language, some GG marquez (love in the time of cholera is a personal favorite. It's about a man, waifu, and her dead husband) or umberto eco and lurk a little longer to learn the board. Thanks =)

Actually I used to wack off to the ice queen, jadis and the snake woman from the narnia books when I was a kid, like 10 or something. I liked the idea of being dominated by a mysterious and powerful woman but I didn't really know what sex was yet, just that I found the idea exciting. I'd imagine them tying me to chairs or turning me into stone and rub my little shota cock against the mattress

Isn't Marya supposed to be fairly unattractive, though? Also, she's a religious nut.
