1984 · 13w
Tough one, good list, these titles are worth a read: Steppenwolf - Herman Hesse Thus Spoke Zarathustra - Nietzsche The Trial - Franz Kafka (as alternative to 1984 and Brave New World) Also worth a read: Heart of Darkness (it is dark) and Meditations (Stoic must read)

Plenty and I love many of them, but this list bothers me. They are almost all fiction. There are no books about actual life, our the even the non-human physical world and universe.

14. Gave up on 2 of the others. I reccomend Moby Dick - it's no.1 for a reason. And Meditations. Read Steppenwolf the other day - that's a creepy one...

I notice a strong Western bias in that list, any way i understand It's correct following that criteria I'm going to recommend three Eastern books that I've read and i think would be on a list of the 100 most influent books of all time. The art of war - Sun tzu The four books - Confucio Tao te Chin...

Only 9... So I will just recomend 1984 But if you take suggestions out of the list, I would recomend "a sangre y fuego" which I think it was translated to english as "heroes and beasts of spain". It is the best book i've read about the spanish civil war, but what is decribed there fits every war.

19 Stoner probably my favourite. Lolita and Heart of Darkness are beautifully written. One hundred years of solitude is my least favourite - an absolute slog. The Fountainhead should be here IMO - most important book I've read.

I believe I have read 11 of these books. Catch-22, Clockwork Orange, Crime and Punishment would be my recommended three. I also like to note anytime I sew it on a list like this, how much I despise The Great Gatsby.

I wonder who voted to put Lolita # 5 on the list 🤔

Read 35 of them. "Crime and Punishment" is certainty a good one.
