The Gauntlet
From Percy to Pessoa — a literary gauntlet wherein each book becomes progressively more complex in writing style, structure, and/or vocabulary. Percy Jackson is our baseline, and Pessoa my personal biggest fear. Selections are almost entirely unrelated by subject matter, and obviously limited by my own inexperience and preferences. Good luck!
(Listed in descending order because I did not plan far enough ahead). If you’re still unsatisfied after this, go read Kant or something.
