what books/authors would you recommend from the 20th century?

i kept putting this ask off bc i wanted to give a really good, detailed, & organized answer but i’ve accepted that i won’t have time & energy for that anytime soon so i’m gonna just list off some of the books/authors from the 1900s that i’ve read and enjoyed

brideshead revisited by evelyn waugh

the stranger by albert camus

the trouble with being born by emil m. cioran

on the heights of despair by emil m. cioran

nausea by jean paul sartre

the book of disquiet by fernando pessoa

the secret history by donna tartt

#i’m still reading the book of disquiet #also lmao the way most of these are existential philosophy books #i need to read more 20th century fiction #i need to find the time to read more in general. i miss reading loads #(i hope all of these are actually from the 1900s i am too exhausted to double check tbh) #anouri answers asks #a decomposing dump of my thoughts

thoughts on maurice so far????

i’m sadly have only had time to get like 25 pages in so i don’t have any major thoughts yet!! but i am hoping to have time to properly get into it soon

#i will likely spam about it when i get more into it / when i finish it #as i tend to do when i actually find the time to read books #anouri answers asks #a decomposing dump of my thoughts
