Hey /Lit/. I am a 25 year old male. I am not super well read but I have read quite a bit during my time on this planet. However, I would love to read more. What authors and books do I REALLY need to read to become a substantial contributor on /Lit/.
-Thanks, /Lit/

i'm dead serious, if you read these you will be able to contribute better than 90% of posters
i chose these because you will be able to contribute to meme conversations in a knowledgeable way (that is, not shitposting).
philosophical investigations
the ego and his own
capital (just vol. 1 is fine)
ride the tiger
infinite jest

well, you need a classic then. read The Count of Monte Cristo.
That is exactly what I am looking for. Something that brings me into meaningful conversation with the most amount of people to learn more about /Lit/. Thanks

these generally won't be easy
there's a reason why most just meme about them rather than discuss them
keep at it; good luck
