Hey guys! I don't know if this discussion occured here and I apologize whether it happened here.
I've been thinking about "best-seller" books and low literature (airport, potboiled and hardboiled literature and another denominations) when I started to read Father's Affair by Karel Glastra van Loon.
I believe that the denomination of "best-seller" use to vary around the world and it isn't a parameter to denominate whether certain books are good or not.
For example, in my country, Jorge Amado, Clarice Lispector and Machado de Assis are considered best-seller authors and their works are obligatory for ENEM and another regional exams for high school called as vestibulares (the equivalent in my country of SAT exams).
I know there are a lot of low quality books with the same depht of a saucer but there are some books which are great too.
What are your favorite books of bestselling and low literature literature?
Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk is mine! And yours?
