Gorgeous Titles of Works

Post those gorgeous and absolutely stunning titles; books, poems, plays, anything literary.


I think Rimbaud's "A Season in Hell" takes it for me. Or In Search of Lost Time

Trapped in the Closet

we're not talking about your diary desu

Oh yeah
that one has a great title too

get out of there, R. Kelly

Everything That Rises Must Converge

is this illustrating the superiority of 2d over 3d

No. It's a sketch I did in an hour that shows how awful I am at painting hair

Ehh

Does anyone else spent more time making up titles for stories that you'll never write than actually writing?

No never, the title is usually the last thing I bother with for works I actually do write

I have files of both stories without titles and titles without stories

Auroras of Autumn
The Sound and the Fury
Under the Volcano

Nietzsche's works have amazing titles:

The Birth of Tragedy
Human, All Too Human
Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Beyond Good and Evil
Twilight of the Idols
The Antichrist
Ecce Homo

Try harder. Go for the ones that type "lik this hehe :) whoooooooo"

what do i do ask them to demonstrate their typing skills for me?

1. Ask for their number(s)
2. Text them

Is that Alexandra?

The Autumn of the Patriarch

A Bagaceira, which roughly translates into "The Mess". The appeal is that it actually describes northeastern Brazil very well.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm no

you cynical bastard
even somethign as underserved as their good will and naivité deserves protection
*tips non-existent hat*

Please? Surely you're not far from New York

your penis

The Sound and The Fury
The Crying of Lot 49
For Whom The Bell Tolls
All Quiet on the Western Front
To a God Unknown
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea

The Possibility of an Island

Am I the only one who prefers "Remembrance of Things Past" to "In Search of Lost Time?" Translating it that literally gives it a sort of misleading flavor.

On Heroes and Tombs
The Flowers of Evil
The Labyrinth of Solitude

This.

"The Foundation for Exploration"

American Gods
The Sound and the Fury
Absalom, Absalom
The Savage Detectives
Distant Star
Cloud Atlas

Best book title is On Virtue, or any book with academic titles.

He stole Beyond Good and Evil from a video game.

>The Savage Detectives
shit

dude... same

The Sickness unto Death.
I don't even like Kierkegaard (or, I should say, I enjoy his writing but ultimately dislike his views).

"The Culture of Critique"

No need to sign your posts.

Things Fall Apart
The Sun Also Rises
No Longer Human

My war gone by, I miss it so
Hard to be a god

A short history of decay

Either/Or is also a good title, because it's a common saying in Scandi countries, but it's not used outside of those countries so it probably sounds weird to outsiders.

One Hundred Years of Solitude

Gravity's rainbow

Gravity's rainbow
No longer human
Burning Chrome
Fragments of an hologram rose

The German translation, "Entweder – Oder", is also not an uncommon part of speech.

Proust has some very good titles. My favorite are :
"Names of places: the name" (in Swann's Way)
"Names of places : the place" (in In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower)

Also this : >Best book title is On Virtue, or any book with academic titles.
I like it as well

Barren Lives

"If, living in Italy, you admire Italian art while despising Italian religion, you are a tourist, or cad."

THE MISSIONARY POSITION

"La ballade des pendus"
"Les fleurs du mal"
"L'être et le néant"

I had a sudden urge to write something similar to Black Hawk Down and "Under a Zenith or Higher" came to my mind. Don't know if it's proper.

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
I just think it fits really well and it's somewhat poetic
