Would you agree with this list, /lit/?
>>7504170
your list is bait
your taste is bait
your purpose is bait
Please stop.
When is 4chan going to move beyond these pointless rankings? I can't remember ever being this immature to think of artworks this way.
>>7504188
I can't wait for the day society realises that preference is subjective.
>>7504188
How are we supposed to talk about things other than giving them rankings?
>>7504170
>God-Tier
>Atlas Shrugged
>>7504170
Harry Potter is a great first book saga for children.
the list is perfect don't listen to these other faggots, they don't even read.
>>7504170
Your God their is good, besides Atlas shrugged. Your shit tier is good. Your other tiers definitely need restructured.
Ulysses =god tier
I deleted the obvious bait books
What do you think of that list, /lit/ ?
>>7504341
Unrepresentative of male authors.

Ngl, most of these are high-school lit student tier but okay.
>>7504464
Sign me the fuck up for that school then!
Know any?
Or are you just saying that to make yourself feel better about not having read them them?I think it's the latter
>>7504464
I had an hight school teacher that made my class read Ravage by René Barjavel. I fucking loved it but I don't know if it was that good or if I just liked it because I was young.
>>7504341
Anon rated a Harry Potter back highly, ATTACK
>>7504339
Hamlet deserves to be in god tier
>>7504341
shit
also half blood prince was better than order of the phoenix
>>7504386
I really don't understand why people rate the Stranger so highly. I thoroughly enjoyed the book but personally I rank books like Notes from Underground alot higher.
>>7504307
That is a shallow view
Of course not. This is bait. What the hell are Tarkovsky's and Monaco's books doing on there?
>>7504310
Ironic because Penn is a big fan of Ayn Rand

Post please.
>>7504464
Good teacehrs actually make students read good books. And that somehow makes all these books less good or whatever you think?

Dosto, Papa, Fartman, Steinbeck and Kafka are the only actually good authors there.
Marquez, Dickens, Shakespeare and Plath are intermediate the rest is intellectual baby food.
>>7505538
>plath
haha
>>7504170
>ayn rand in god tier
This is bait, right?
whatever happened to quentin? does he still lurk?

Personally I prefer Macbeth over the other tragedies. My rankings takes into account social impact, OP didn't have Great Expectations, Romeo and Juliet, Moby Dick, The Old Man and the Sea, etc it just seems like he picked random second tier books from famous authors.
As an aside both Hemingway and Kafka were better in short bursts, here is a nice contrast:
bit do acountrydoctor
bit do indiancamp
>people putting brave new world higher than 1984
Oh my gott
The two children's fables that seperate old moneyed Ivy Leagures from the state school proles
>>7504405

Confirmed high school tier.
>They're both fantastic

ahhahaha no
>>7504293
Think about what you're saying.
The Fault in Our Stars is as valid and high quality as Hemingway, Dostoyevsky and Shakespeare?
Quality matters. Art doesn't exist for art's sake; it is created in a historical context, not a vaccuum. Ideas are projected through art as a medium. Correct ideas presented in an aesthetically pleasing way is good art. Incorrect (or nonexistent) ideas presented in an incorrect way (illegible or undecernable), is bad art.
>>7506517
>The Fault in Our Stars is as valid and high quality as Hemingway, Dostoyevsky and Shakespeare?
valid? I don't know. Probably not.
But are there people who would enjoy John Green more? Definitely.
Is there anything wrong with that? No.
>>7505074
Odysseus Weeps is one of my favorite books. Great picks.
>>7506095
you never know ;)
>>7506428
It's the STRANGER if your not reading in in French, don't say the French name to make yourself sound sophisticated you fucking piece of shit
>>7504339
There is an acute lack of Gaddis in this list.
>>7504170
You are trying way to hard to fit in
>>7506428
AHAHAHA YEAH
>>7507261
nigga he aint make this chart boy foh wit ur bullshit
>>7506517
The more contraversial/different book is, the more difficult it is to judge it's quality.
While I agree it's certainly sometimes possible to distinguish a bad book from a good one, standards in art aren't objective, they change from person to person, from purpose to purpose, from time to time etc.
Literature isn't black and white. It isn't either "good" or "bad". It's about the effect it gives to the mass of readers, thus it's the readers after all who judge the book, and they determine wether it's good or bad.
So, if every human being was a retard, a shitty book would be considered a high quality one - it all derives from a reader, not from a book, man.
>atlas shrugged better than 1984
>GOT listed as shit tier
>to kill a mockingbird shit tier
Kill yourself OP you edgy libertardian faggot
>>7506523
Take for a moment to think about exactly who would be enjoying it more, though. Someone either under-read or young, someone who finds it much more easy to access than Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare, etc. It is the ignorance of these people that makes them "enjoy it more", a quality separate from the text.
The problem isn't the ignorance itself, but the notion that somehow an uninformed opinion holds the same weight as an informed one.
>>7506604
Actually, he's on the list :^)
>>7504170
This was horseshit. just read books. shit is not that difficult to comprehend
>>7504170
> Ulysses is mid tier
> The Trial is low tier
There is so much more wrong with this list, bad bait OP
>atlas shrugged is better than brave new world and 1984
Fucking kill yourself OP
>>7504899
because he's a faggot trashman
>>7504170
>god tier
yes with don quixote, no on the stranger
>high tier
yes with faulkner and hemmingway
>middle tier
sure, kafka seems fitting. a fun and experiencing read, maybe higher for me
>low tier
hamlet should be with shit, and one hundred years should at least be high tier.
>shit tier
pretty sloppy here, i can only say i agree with the harry potter and game of thrones books.
>kafka

>>7504170
This is a troll list.
>>7508231
>getting this worked up over brave new world and 1984
hi, newreader
List is bait, but Wuthering Heights was utter garbage, so I partly agree
>>7504487
>It has to be obscure to be good
It sure is teenager around here
>>7508537
I think he is rightfully worked up about Rand being considered Literature. Shit-tier is too much for Rand.
>>7508729
>I think he is rightfully worked up
he's reddit and we both know it.
