Every Classic Book Described in One Sentence (Part 2) 

Instructions unclear: I saw these as book recommendations.

Dune: "Boy does drugs and becomes space Hitler"

The Brothers Karamazov: "600 pages in, and I still have no idea what this book is about."

The Divine Comedy had me howling with laughter: “poetic Yelp review” 😂

The Hunger Games: Rich people force poor kids to fight to the death to win money

Well this actually helps since I wanted to expand my pallet of classic books and wanted to know what each one was generally about, and now I have some reading to do!

I honestly love how much of an outlier Beowulf is compared to the other Classics. It doesn't have anything profound to say about society, morality, or human nature. It's not some witty satire that makes us question our values, beliefs, and traditions. It's not even all that emotionally compelling. But for a shameless wish-fulfillment fantasy it incredibly well-written, and that's what makes it timeless.

When you eventually describe "Wednesday" in one sentence: "The show where fans ship the goth Latina with perky white girl because the male love interests are boring af."

Please do more of these! I now have a ton of new books I want to read.

The Sound and the Fury: "Honestly, I have no f***ing idea."

Small correction: you accidentally put Tennyson's "Ulysses" in the video instead of Joyce's! Otherwise, great work and very accurate :)

Fantastic work. This series has to continue.

Starship Troopers: Teenager joins the Space Army, mostly about how militarism is good.

I like what you say about Slaughterhouse-Five. Everyone is stuck in time, but not him.

I applaud and appreciate the effort that went into this

I remember seeing a Reddit thread about disturbing non-horror books and all the book were listed in this video lol. Also I never thought anyone would use the words “poetic yelp review” to describe Dante’s inferno 😭

Great Expectations: The old lady never says chicka boom

No longer human: Pretty much a long suicide letter

can you do Demian by herman hesse in the next part?

Awesome, more of this please

I’m dying at the brothers karamazov. Love that book though.

I love these videos. Please make more.

Okay, the description for phantom of the opera is alot more better than what I can come up with

Will you do Blood Meridian? I would regard it as a classic

YESSS! We need a part 3 with Requiem for a Dream 🙏🙏🙏

if you thought 100 years of solitude was nonsensical you should read hopscotch by julio cortázar (both were made by southamerican authors around the same era)

Haha nice!

Great video still waiting for a clockwork orange

Do one for graphic novels like Bone, Amulet, Maus, Persepolis, etc.

for the hunchback of notredame,, Esmeralda ( is that also her name in the book? ) is Romani. However, she is called a gypsy ( a slur for her people I believe ) because of the time period, I think it’s fine to use in reference to the book?? Idk though, I’m not Romani.

Next time add The Alchemist and Where the Red Fern Grows please

Moreeeeee
