This is good for writing something in code no one else understands, or maybe in a situation where it's literally impossible to get to a light source, but learning an entire morse code language just so you don't have to light a candle, that doesn't seem easier. He would have been easier to just invent the light bulb

This really easier than lighting a candle lol

So basically, i have to learn a morse code type stuff to write down a idea at night?

That’s very cool! I wonder if anyone else ever used this alphabet. 🤔

Why wasn’t The Art of the Deal mentioned?

THE INSTITUTE DESERVES MOREEE

I need Rowling to lose it all 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Postman is already gender neutral man is in woman too

Another excellent video! Seeing The Mouse Trap was one of my favorite parts of visiting London. The play has been performed for so long that one of the elderly actors in this particular production had played the young lead 40 years earlier in the same theatre.

JKRowlinf isn’t being transphobic for the money, she’s in it for the love of the game.

AAAAAA I LOVE THE OUTSIDERS!!!!

Infinite Jest is a joy if you get into it.

Light in August by William Faulkner is a magnificent stream of consciousness novel.

Friedrich Nietzche is the WORST.

Oh god... Patrick Rothfus has put book three in there, hasn't he!!!

Yeah cos we totally give a crap about time capsules from 100 years ago

I, for one, don't find them fascinating. I think they're books by "authors" that can't write books, but what do I know? I'm an illiterate idiot.

I have a feeling I could read it, but I would be inclined not to do so. Life is too short.

Thank you for that video! Currently reading Salem's Lot. I loved The Stand and thought Carrie was decent.

So quick to read, so slow to write, same chance of getting publishes as every other novel (ie, zero to none), as my favorite literary medium, I wish they were taken more seriously in the west.

I bet that's where Martin's hiding the rest of A Song of Ice and FIre

Life's too short.

The Quran is a solid 11 on the scale.

Finnegans Wake isn’t a book, it’s a practical joke. People smarter than me tell me Ulysses is a great novel. I’ll have to take their word for it; I’ve tried several times and never gotten far. Sound and the Fury is genius, and vastly easier to read than Ulysses. Just read the words. Don’t think, just read. Remember, it’s a tale told by an idiot. Or in this case, three idiots

Holy moly, a youtube ranking video that isn't 1 hour and 20 minutes long? A miracle!

The brilliance and the beauty of the prose of Gravity's Rainbow makes it worth the read. I would finish a paragraph and be amazed that someone could achieve what he did with prose. I have to admit that it did take me 5 years to read, on and off. And I was disappointed that the reference to gravity's rainbow was to the parabolic trajectory of a missle rather than a hypothetical spectrum of gravity waves. But it was still amazing.

Good stories!

dr seuss’ first book was the pocket book of boners

Was that ted hughes? Nasty peice of work.

her husband stole a masterpiece from the world </3

I agree with King but love both!

OMG, William Faulkner knew about Downs Syndrome! Everyone did. I hate hearing girls this age speak as though books from the 1930s were written in cave days. As for Autism, I was studying that in college in 1969. Give us a break, girlie. Here's the thing: people like Benjy in "The Sound and the Fury" were just referred to as "simpletons." (Or idiots.) If Benjy had had Downs Syndrome, he'd have been called by the term doctors used in the 1960s--a Mongoloid. P.C. has forced Americans to change their language. Today we don't call people with leprosy "lepers." We say they have Hansen's Disease. Young, fast-talking, slow-reading girls like this should find better ways to spend their time.

blood meridian

I can make it that long 💪🏻

I could hypothetically still be alive. I mean I won't be but still.

Surely G I Gurdjieff's "Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson" should be included on such a list.

Well, you’re just great, aren’t ya? Thanks so much for the video, and the list.

Hemingway really wasn't capable of writing complex characters or artful sentences. He was a mediocrity who appealed to juvenile young men, hence his popularity.

I am a teacher and it's the right things are going right now I am not sure anyone will be able to read books in a 100 years. This is really a crisis

A lot of crazy assumptions have gone into this . First, we are assuming that what is written will be of any great quality. Second, we are assuming that people will still be reading books 100 years into the future but that seems to be a dying thing now. We are also further assuming that there will be people who know how to make paper from wood 100 years from now. I doubt that technology will survive.

Watch GRRM put his last 2 in there lol

Read Evola’s Revolt Against the Modern World if you want to challenge yourself

Heh! Yeah, I taught several of the stories from 'Dubliners' to my 10th-graders, and I passed around a copy of 'Finnegans Wake" for them to take a look at. They found a brief look at the pages amusing, as I do, but reading it? No, that's beyond me.

Wow that editor did a MOUTHFUL on him. 😂

She hit the nail on the head

She sounds like a b word. Poor Hemingway

I have read the Sun also Rises and ... She is not wrong. Hemingway intentionally wrote the book to capture what it is like to be a vain, high class, self centered, shallow sophisticate During the hedonistic 20, after facing the horrors of WWI. The entire plot is about these vapid characters who flutter about looking for some new amusement to save off the tedium of existence for a few brief moments. Because all is vain and meaningless. The result is a reading experience dryer and more laborious than any other book I have ever had the displeasure of coming across. All the characters are unlikeable, the plot has no point, and everything that happens is utterly boring and meaningless. The Great Gatsby itself is a virtual beacon of hope and optimism next to the nihilistic brain rot expressed in the Sun Also Rises. Everything that this editor wrote in the rejection letter is 100% accurate. And it is accurate because Hemingway did all of that ON PURPOSE! I don't know if that makes it better or worse, but I can definitely say thatdespite thoroughly enjoying some of Hemingways other wrotings, this was hands down the least pleasant book I have ever read.

Art is subjective, but very entertaining letter.

Can you review Sherlock Holmes books?

Maybe no one under 40 can read these books because they were given pity passes in school. Those of us who attended school before everyone was given an A promote self-esteem have no problems understanding them.
