I'm trying to say the vast majority of /lit/core books employ some sort of irony to some degree. Without being more specific and just asking for "irony" is too vague. You have to specify on what sort of "confusing irony" you're after.

A Hero of Our Time fits what I think you're asking for but I'm just guessing.

Irony like in that pic, demonstrations of those various "levels" in writing.

>>7474151
read some Kierkegaard or better yet Socrates. Personally I'm also a big fan of Orwell

Feels like a stupid relation to draw and you're just gonna get shoehorned-in comparisons, but fuck it why not:

Level 0: The Alchemist
Level 1: Slaughterhouse V, Catch 22, etc.
Level 2: Hitchhiker's Guide, Gulliver's Travels, Candide, American Psycho, etc.
Level 3: Lolita, The Stranger, Dead Souls, etc.
Level 4: The Savage Detectives, 2666, Don Quixote, etc.
Level 5: Finnegans Wake, Faust, etc.


Level X: The Cat in the Hat
>>
a good modern author would be using every level at certain points and situations with the exception of perhaps level X because that simply flings the reader and author both into a mindless feedback loop. meme shit desu
