Has anyone here actually read any of these besides Stoner?



What other books would qualify as "exit-level?"

No, I have only read Stoner, and the only other one I've ever heard of is A Short history of Decay. Basically, the list is shit.

yes, the passion according to gh

The Maimed was written by one of Kafka's friends. 

It's a really uncomfortable sex-hell book where everything keeps getting worse and worse for the protag, who is an awkward and constantly humiliated dork. 



Melancholy of Resistance. Bretty gud, takes turns being fantastic and unutterably turgid. Krasznahorkai loves his descriptions of decay and misery but Satantango is his better book.



Kornel Esti. Don't remember much about it. Wasn't a fan. Means absolutely nothing to me.

>prides himself on having *heard* of books.

I read, Stoner, The street of crocodiles, The passion according to GH, A short story of decay, Jakob Von Gunten, The Leopard and Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas. 



Who made this chart is obviously a brazilian.



I recommend A man asleep by Perec, The Loser by Bernhard and The moon and the bonfires by Pavese.

Do I have to say it?

i'm sorry for being retarded, but what does "exit-level" mean? is that like "once you've read this, you should transcend/leave /lit/?

Exit-level is a meme for chartfags who want to speedrun their taste growth. There's nothing exit-level about Memoirs of Bras Cubas; it is literally the most popular book to come out of Brazil.

Do you people not enjoy reading? Why do you want out?

>>21938697 (OP)

Those are all pretty much entry-level literary fiction, bud

>uncomfortable

Maybe stop being mentally weak.

opposite of entry is exit. retarded name

>>21938697 (OP)

Bras Cubas is literally an entry level book.

>the maimed

very disturbing book about a band clerk who get's serially raped by his landlady. Good book

>Lanark 

book where the plot changes completely every hundred pages. Good book. First 100 pages are 10/10

>The leopard

Book about a king. Some of the best prose you'll ever read

>Bras Cubas

Insane shitpost of a book where a ghost tells the story of his life. Totally compelling

>Motorman

One of the most surreal books I've ever read. The villian is one of the most menacing characters I've ever encountered

>>21938697 (OP)

I've two of these.

the geschichtklitterung, zettels traum, the anatomy of melancholy (fairly well known but extremely long), urantia book, jung's red book, philip k. dick's exegesis
