Notes from the Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Hated it. An endless rant by an inordinately uninteresting crazy man followed by a very brief inconsequential narrative about his liaison with a gold-hearted prostitute. This book seemed, like Joyce’s Portrait of an Artist as Young Man (another supposedly great book that I hated), especially designed to discourage young readers from ever wanting to pick up another book.
