reading Ignat Avsey's translation of bratya karamazovy and it's fantastic. can't imagine what it's like natively because i dropped my russian courses before becoming fluent.

but i'm /lit/, so i'll answer your question. some good advice is to get an e-reader (especially if you're accustomed to looking at screens). kindle paperwhite if you're poor, kobo aura one if not.

as you may know, gen.lib.rus.ec is the best way to get ebooks for free.

the last one, BotNS, is something of a meme on /lit/ because it has such literary merit for a work of sci-fi/fantasy. the author is a big american thomist and he makes his theology felt throughout the text without being blatant or inept. highly recommend.

cont...

history & nonfiction
>axworthy's "iran: empire of the mind"
>any of susan wise bauer's work; she has the best, most accessible general histories of the ancient, medieval, and renaissance worlds. she's also a qt conservative waifu who advocates homeschooling and is not jewish, despite the name.
>victor cha's "the impossible state: north korea, past and future"
>david mccullough
>jon meacham
>thomas sowell's "basic economics" (shouts out to le based conservative negro)
>toby wilkinson's "the rise and fall of ancient egypt"

hopefully it's apparent that my recommendations are not conclusive, but are reflections of what's currently on my ereader at the present moment. i'll continue bumping this zombie thread because i'm passionate about books and genuinely hope that more Sup Forumslacks would take time to read.

i'll bump with some homegrown /lit/ meme images. this one is for people who haven't read since they were forced to during high school.

and now by nationality...

Must read book series. Put this at the top of your list. You will come out of the experience a different person.

...

you must read the harry potter series before this to get the full intended effect, and you must follow my picture to begin the harry potter series

...

essential Sup Forumslack image

i didn't create these images, nor do i endorse every work on here—but generally, they're good

this is the upper shelf of /lit/core. doesn't always mean it's good, though

Read sylvain tesson, trust me

...

...

for the paranoid out here

/lit/ is shit because they're anglo and anglos don't know shit about literature

The only books worth reading are French and Russian and german ( for goethe and his friends)

Bait

>the only books worth reading are french
take a look at what you see here. i'll give you a hint:
>no discernible talent

There's no good English classical author

Shakespeare only wrote stories about cucking
Hemingway shot elephants because he had a tiny dick. His most popular book is about a guy who is trying to kill a big fish

Anglo psychopatism as it's best

Also don't bother with madam bovary it's an apology book for women who cheat. The author is also homosexual

Also don't read victor hugo because he is a huge leftist and would defend migrants today

Can't see pics rn
Also dostoiebsky is a feet obsessed cuck who likes to throw money at women ando submit to them

If you read "the player" or "the brothers karamazov" it's obvious

Crime and punishment is still great even though this guy is like a Russian tarantino

Book links and several libraries

...

...

Not OP, but thanks for the link. I've bought an aura one lately and didn't find a really good website to dl more books.

Brothers Karamazov is one of thz best book I've ever read. The author is such a master about human psyches and weaknesses... such great characters.

I need more that are batshit crazy.

Who the fuck is susan wise bauer feministsnon? Gtfo
