ITT: Your favourite author's worst book.
Love is blind.
Hollywood by Bukowski. Haven't read Pulp yet, it might be worse.
>>7606039
>The Double for Dostoyevsky
Hardly. It's his best work pre-arrest, certainly better than Poor Folk.
Here is his worst book.
The bible
>>7606073
Nah, Hypersphere is Anonymous worst book.
Amerika
I preferred The Double to The Gambler. The latter hardly felt like a Dostoevsky story at all. The Double at least had an atmosphere.
>>7606039
The Middle C.
>>7606049
>Bukowski
Why are you here?
finnegans wake

angsty "muh ltierary lifestyle" wannabe detected
>>7606039
lmao. either you have bad taste or read 3-4 books by him
He did it, the absolute madmanbecause Hurley
>>7606039
I actually liked the double.
Also, pic related, it was good, but doesn't get to the level of East of Eden or Winter of our Discontent.
>>7606039
it saddens me that he wasted so much effort on this instead of writing Doors of Stone.
That being said, it has its highs and lows. It felt rushed to completion, and I've read it may have been a contractual thing. It starts stronger than it ends, though.

Are you serious? Amerika is tied with The Trial as my favorite of Franz Kafka's works, all short stories and all. What did you not like about it?
>>7606039
I didn't like it too
>>7606039
Based on subject this just bored me but the Pendlebury accounts were amusing, what I found annoying was his over use of french expressions which I couldn't translate at the time of reading.
>>7606555
Tortilla Flat is still way better than the fucking Red Pony.
>>7606039
the idiot is by far and away his weakest work.
a virginial god botherer and perpetually weeping bints. no thank you.
>>7606115
ah i was planning on reading this next, what didn't you like about it? might just skip to eyes if it's that bad
>>7606120
Heyo reddit.
>>7606936
It's not bad at all, just not as good as, say, The Tunnel or Omensetter's Luck. Anything by Gass is phenomenal.
>>7606555
lmao confirmed for reading literally three Steinbeck
still pretty gud
>>7606039
Joyce never wrote a bad book.
>>7607674
dubliners is p crap
>>7606039
the Double is better than Notes from Underground. Pleb.
>>7606304
> portrait
> his worst
Is it really fair to say Joyce has a worst anything?
>>7609029
Joyce's drama and poetry work are relatively weak, but his worst book is like the shortest giant.
>>7606107
Aw hell no
>>7606846
>the idiot is by far and away his weakest work.
Holy shit, literally end yourself immediately.
>>7606107
Fucking faggot idiot, I hope your dog died
come at me
