please no, corn father
the sheer amount of anti-nabby shitposting i'm seeing in /lit/ lately is quite Sad!
we should learn to have more respect for the GOAT

lolita > speak, memory > pale fire >= short stories > the gift > bend sinister >= shitposting (strong opinions, eugene onegin, lectures & the book on gogol) > ada > pnin > other russ novels > other eng novels > poems

>>11014343
So far I read Pale Fire, Lolita and Invitation to a Beheading, listed here in order of preference, though they were all amazing, including the latter, which I had thought was one of the minor works.
Recommend me my next Big Daddy Nabbo, please.
