Ulysses was easy for me

Change Ulysses for Finnegan Wake — though Finnegan is kinda readable and pretty funny.

Naked Lunch

Fanged Noumena, Écrits, DEATH sentences, etc

>>20144183
Besides the funny insults I have no idea what part of this book is hard to read

>>20144183
Anything by Kierkegaard. Love the guy, just can't read him

Well that's the combination of drunk stupor and a brain concussion it's meant to be nonsensical

Voynich Manuscript

The only legitimate answer here.

Second this. At least some Kierkegaard is just so impenetrable.

Ulysses is definitely not unreadable. Is it tough with some difficult sections? Sure. Are there slogs? Yeah. But it is readable. Just need a good guide and patience.

As for "unreadable" books, I'd say any of William Burroughs' "cut-up" novels ("The Naked Lunch," "The Soft Machine," etc.), "Finnegans Wake" by James Joyce, and the early poems of John Ashbery like "The Tennis Court Oath". Not to say that these books are not enjoyable, as I enjoy all of these writers and the works I mentioned, but they are on the cusp of being unreadable.

>you need a guide for this book bro, but its totally easy
your post is retarded, but link the guide if you have it

>>20144555
How is my post retarded? Just because it's a tough book that some readers would need a guide for doesn't make it automatically unreadable. Also, seriously? You can't type in the words "Ulysses online guide" in Google yourself?

Also the New Bloomsday Book is great as well.

Thank you for your informative and effortful post and sorry for calling your previous post retarded. I tried reading Ulysses when I was an edgy 17 year old sperg and got filtered out of it 80 pages in. Maybe I give it another shot with a guide.

''We'' by yevgeny zamyatin. Don't know if that was translation issue or I'm just stupid but so many sentences made no sense
