idk. i didn’t loooove this when i read it in college. but upon reread…it kinda slays. it has a timeless quality about it that is so unique in classic literature. it’s humor is really absurd and effective. and the characters are really enjoyable. bartleby is the immovable object and the narrator is the unstoppable force.
