Who was more GOAT than hemingway
 

does anyone even come close? fitzgerald maybe?

let me know

K.A. Applegate.

dante alighieri

yea inferno was a good one, not gonna lie it was on some GOAT level shit

Vladimir Nabokov and Kurt Vonnegut are my favorites, but I would put William Faulkner, James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway and Nabokov at the top of the greatest of all-time list. The order can be disputed.

I don't care for F. Scott Fitzgerald much.

lmfao na

dostoyevsky is maybe GOAT

Henry David Thoreau

i'll animorph a xanaform. slam a course of Abelour.

Carl Jung

I always feel (perhaps unfairly) that translated writing cannot properly capture the author's intent (unless the author was the translator, as was the case for some of Vladimir Nabokov's work). But if the language barrier is overlooked, you're right.

Thomas WOLFE

James Joyce. i think William Golding is sort of underrated. i don't know what this thread is about. i just want to mention lots of poets.

obv Steinbeck

Jung was GOAT psychologist, the undiscovered self was good

Joyce is baller only a few ppl can pull off his wackiness, I started finnegan's wake and I was like yo THIS TAKES TOO MUCH RESEARCH AND CONCENTRATION and I was like na, let me play some more zelda bro

Steiner was cool on that subconscious animals getting bigger in the intro of mice and men type shit

even trannyed his characters r baller

I've never really read like anybody in this thread cept for a couple books.

James Joyce is difficult. My favorite of his work is A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, mostly because it's the one that I come away fulfilled from. He's one of the least-prolific authors who gets mentioned in these discussions, but he rewrote writing to a degree. The academics are obsessed. I probably wouldn't recommend anything other than Dubliners and maybe Portrait to friends.

Oscar Wilde is in the conversation for greatest all-around writer. (Admittedly, that discussion ends with William Shakespeare every time.)

Obv Lil Wayne is obv

Tolstoy

Gay

Mustachio close thread

@big baby

mustachio officially close thread.

It has been rated amongst many to be the single greatest book to come out of the middle ages and one of the best books ever written.

hunter thompson
kurt vonnegut
aldous huxley
george orwell
tenneseee williams
mark twain

i could go on.

I don't read a lot.

K.A. Applegate
Cormac McCarthy
Chuck Pahlaniuk

Not the GOATS but authors I enjoyed at some point in my life.

Reading is for lame-o's.

Not really. I should read more. I like it. But Netflix and other stuff is better suited for the new-age short attention life. I don't have ADHD though. Who knows bros.

I didn't like Inferno.

Whatcha reading for?

dear wis

dat ass

does she have titties too?

elbows too pointy

Bill Hicks quote?

i can only read a certain type of writing, i like reading prose and satire. your fellow native ck, sedaris, neilman, a few others. books like burnhams new shel silver imitation but a bit more vulgar is funny and i want to release a book like that. i read a lot of poetry, and i never find one writer i like to continually read besides a few satirical authors. sedaris is awesome. i think they're good writers overall, but they go unnoticed due to the harvard and cornell graduates that feel the need to use words unnecessarily in every sentence and other wannabe high end writers think that's what makes a writer good. but hey to each his own right? WRONG BIG BABY ALWAYS RIGHT. mustachio stache hadouken. i find it easier to read in a nice scenery than in the comfort of my own home. though i think reading should be done in such places to expand thought and surround yourself with different aura. hemingway is one of my favorite. twain doesn't compare in my opinion. vonnegut either. both stellar, but i like alot of other authors. i like myself.

Oscar Wilde is my favourite person ever.

Most people suck.

Sun Tzu
H.G. Wells
Philip K. Dick
Edgar Allen Poe
Stephen King
Alan Moore
