books to claim to have read to look insufferable
puts beret on a jaunty angle ‘why yes i went to Oxbridge and go skiing on my holibobs with papa, why do you ask?’ takes a hit of tobacco flavoured vape, puts asterisk in margin of the obscure classic i’m ‘reading’
the list for people who want to look ‘well read’ and need some books to name drop - look no further if you have read them, more power to you, but this is explicitly about the people who claim to have read them but can’t read instructions on pasta
consider this a shopping list 🖤

Literary Modernism
Originating in the late 1800s and continuing until the end of World War II, works of the modernism movement feature new and innovative styles, a break from traditional writing, and attempts to recontextualize literature in response to both the devastation of the series of global conflicts between 1900-1950 and the emergence of new technology, ideas, and world order. Subgenres of modernism include absurdism, surrealism, dadaism, and stream of consciousness.

Tristan & the Classics Ultimate Reading List
This list is from the BookTube Channel "Tristan and the Classics" in 2022. It is compiled from quite a few best or most influential book lists. He does have a disclaimer on how everyone will have their own top 50 list. He also talks about how the books are just a list of books. However, there is one that I am not sure I will ever read. The YouTuber, also said he would never read the same book.
