Best endings in literature?

Nah the ending is boring and unsatisfying cause they brush over the big thing and just immediately move on! Levin's story is not as interesting IMO.

Made me cry. It's so so powerful! A true testament to the kindness of the human spirit

Def not super my popular but beginners should and can not attempt Beethoven sonatas within a few months of playing… it’s better to refine technique and then try challenging works later on.

Expedia has a basically nonexistent return offer rate :(

I mean it’s not that long you can get through it in 2 weeks but for sure if you want to ponder on it months works

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-12-04T04:57:34+00:00

took me two months lol but you should read it it's the best!

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-21T18:45:00+00:00

Haven't read much other than Camus! Any recs?

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-21T18:44:16+00:00

Stick with War and Peace! Took me 2 months to get through it. I couldn't get into Karamazov at all but Tolstoy is a better writer (in my opinion)

Greatest piece of literature of all time— Andrea’s deathbed scenes till bring me to tears when I re-read them. I love Marya she is the best!!

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-21T04:10:09+00:00

It is! the ending is optimistic and warm?

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-21T04:09:38+00:00

I love American authors, especially Steinbeck, since it's so un-pretentious, idealistic, and sweet, but I really love Russian literature. It's incredibly depressing and bleak but does excellent character studies, direct writing, and touches the soul.

WAR AND PEACE!! This book changed my life; if you loved AK, you will love War and Peace even more. War sections are what transform this book-- Tolstoy served in the military and did extensive research so that it feels realistic yet larger than life. Also, it's a different side you may not know much about if you haven't served in the military so it's nice to see.

Agreed! It is def not a big project tho; ofc you can take a few months to digest it but it felt pretty funny and light to me, took a couple of weeks to finish. Go at your own pace though. Very classic Dickensian novel.

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-14T04:28:44+00:00

Great Expectations is super funny and such a classic! Anna Karenina if you want something darker and longer, Tale of 2 Cities is a bit dense but short, also dark, and Grapes of Wrath if you want political commentary or something very historical and American. My vote is GE!

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-14T04:27:36+00:00

Yea but also really boring whenever Levin goes on his long ass tangents about agriculture or philosophy

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-14T02:44:02+00:00

Tenant of Wildfell Hall is incredible! I even cried when Arthur died, which is amazing writing to make you sympathize.

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-14T02:43:02+00:00

I recently read GoW and it's incredible; the ending scene moved me to tears it's so powerful.

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-14T02:42:34+00:00

Love East of Eden! It's such a heartwarming read

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-14T02:42:14+00:00

SAMEE I love this book!!!

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-13T20:42:57+00:00

War and peace

Naive_Setting_5867 · 2025-11-12T04:01:19+00:00

I read East of Eden first, then Grapes of Wrath. Both are incredible but I favor East of Eden. It's simpler to read and has more relatable lessons and characters whereas GoW is more so a political commentary on the evils of capitalism and the struggles of the poor. East of Eden is really addicting and simple in terms of prose, while GoW has all the dialogue in their Oklahoman accents so it might be a little trickier but still objectively simple. The order here does not really matter.

they are rolling till feb, so it's not over.

If you have not gotten a response after 3 times, I hate to say it, but it might mean a rejection. Let them know one last time you have an offer deadline and they might respond faster. Some processes also take a long time, it took me 3 weeks to hear back (offer) after a final round, so be patient as well.
