What's the best book you've ever read?

Seizure Of Power by Czeslaw Milosz
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath.
Probably Gravity's Rainbow or Middlemarch. Maybe Mason & Dixon or The Age of Innocence. To the Lighthouse would be close with those too.

How fucking pleb can someone be? God damn, anon, Kys.
crime and punishment
>>8240573
Well, for the Milosz
I honestly can't say why I love it so much but winding the resignation of the polish even in the face of their ultimate victory, the feeling of regret, and the Hegelian dialect itself, it's just this book that I hold entirely responsible for shaping my way of thinking. In addition it's beautifully written and a hugely emotional work; recommended reading along with milosz's nonfiction work, The Captive Mind
Jnfinite Iest by Favid Doster Wallace
Joyce's Ulysses, Nightwood by Djuna Barnes, and The Cannibal Galaxy by Cynthia Ozick.
Probably this

Well there is just something about Plath's writing style that just keeps me captivated, let alone the story and ending in general is not only intriguing, but fantastic. idk.
Larva by Rios, Finnegans and the Tunnel.
I really only read poetry and philosophy, but these appealed to me greatly.
If you can think of anything in a similar vein, I'd be happy for a rec.
*sigh* I'll try
