What's the most piece of fiction?

Catcher in the rye.

I've never understood the appeal and to me it comes off as very

CS Lewis goes MASK OFF at coomers in Mere Christianity

"For me the real evil of masturbation would be that it takes an appetite which, in lawful use, leads the individual out of himself to complete (and correct) his own personality in that of another (and finally in children and even grandchildren) and turns it back: sends the man back into the prison of himself, there to keep a harem of imaginary brides. And this harem, once admitted, works against his ever getting out and really uniting with a real woman. For the harem is always accessible, always subservient, calls for no sacrifices or adjustments, and can be endowed with erotic and psychological attractions which no real woman can rival. Among those shadowy brides he is always adored, always the perfect lover: no demand is made on his unselfishness, no mortification ever imposed on his vanity. In the end, they become merely the medium through which he increasingly adores himself . . . . And it is not only the faculty of love which is thus sterilized, forced back on itself, but also the faculty of imagination.

The true exercise of imagination, in my view, is (a) To help us to understand other people (b) To respond to, and, some of us, to produce, art. But it has also a bad use: to provide for us, in shadowy form, a substitute for virtues, successes, distinctions etc. which ought to be sought outside in the real world—e.g. picturing all I’d do if I were rich instead of earning and saving. Masturbation involves this abuse of imagination in erotic matters (which I think bad in itself) and thereby encourages a similar abuse of it in all spheres. After all, almost the main work of life is to come out of our selves, out of the little, dark prison we are all born in. Masturbation is to be avoided as all things are to be avoided which r-slur this process. The danger is that of coming to love the prison.”

I will never tire of shilling for Gogol on /h/lit

Dead Souls is a highly societypilled book but not in an angsty way

Though the society in question is 19th Century Russia

the enders game collection, and specifically enders shadow and its EVERYTHING

Not fiction but Nietzsche. Dude is still top tier edgy even by modern standards and is funny as shit and insightful as well. He would’ve unironically been a dramatard.

1984 doesn't count, because Orwell was a boring socialist and it's peachy and redditty, unlike Brave New World.

Reddit often sucks off bnw as better than nef. Nef is by a significant marging the superior book. Sneed cope and dilate and most importantly do it while replying to this comment.

cows by matthew stokoe, and theres a scene where the main character has s*x with his dead moms body after she died literally eating his own shit and its EVERYTHING

Blood Meridian .

The judge is dancing

Blood meridian

just remembered the wasp factory

Depending your definition of fiction, probably harassment architecture. The main character reads a clickbait headline then rants m about the Chinese for a full chapter

Atomised

Hah, rdrama.net looks like a place for non-functional NPC seething about how superior the right is. God, I couldn't give a frick about r-slurred leftist drama, I could only imagine what kind of cretin would dedicate time or effort to right wing "drama". What fricking losers, LOL.

Houllebecq is very societypilled in an sort of way

If you're ever feeling down in the love department and want to feel even worse, read some of his books

The Lorax

I am too stupid to read any of those other books
