Pretty based desu. I really like all three of them, although what is your favorite thing by Harold Bloom? I disagree with him on a lot of things such as his disliking DFW and Jack Kerouac, but I can't disagree with his love of Joyce, Cervantes, etc. I enjoy Shakespeare but I do think his hard-on for Shakes is a little too strong.

My favorite thing about Harold Bloom is honestly his interviews. That said, I've had The Western Canon as sort of a guide which I pull out when I'm interested in Pessoa, Shakespeare, Kafka, Joyce, Beckett, Borges, etc. and it has neat run downs of each of these artists, and more who I've taken an interest in which he introduces really well in The Western Canon. I've been meaning to get into "How To Read and Why" too. Tbh his favorite literature is pretty much mine, and I love his collection of the best poems in the English language.
