>>8003474
Austism.
>>8003403
Frankenstein
Blood Meridian
The Picture of Dorian Gray
The republic
The King James Bible

If you haven't read all of these by your mid 20's you're a fucking pleb.

>>8003403
I don't think any books can increase a niggers intellectual prowess.

>>8003479

I'd recommend maybe starting with the epistle to the Romans or the gospel of John

But 20-year-olds are usually around that point in their college education

Even if he isn't, and is beyond that point, he, as anybody else, still should read them for maximum prowess.

20 year olds should be in graduate school. What are you talking about? By the time I was 20 I was doing my PhD in arithmetic geometry.

Sounds as useful as my PhD in philosophy

If you're not reading Folland and Hatcher by the time you're 20 then you should probably just become an actuary.

It's only means that to the OCD christfag who posts here nonstop.

The real fedoras are sad Christian m'lady cucks like John C Wright.

Just read OP. Not pop-culture or best-seller bullshit though. Also, actually think about what you read. ENGAGE your mind in the subject matter. You have no idea how many people say they've read something but if you ask them about it they have nothing to fucking say, and if you don't understand it (or a portion of it) the first time, read it until you do! Ruminate on it.

You gain intellectual prowess not simply by exposing yourself to intellectual materials, but by analyzing those materials intellectually.

Here ya go - the tip of the iceberg.

No, YOU are the pleb here. Frankenstein embodies every aspect of the human spirit and if you fail to see that perhaps you should go back to being an undergrad. Fucking pleb
