Chaucer is the greatest writer of Medieval English

Chaucer is the greatest writer of Medieval English.
Shakespeare and Milton are the greatest writers of the English language from the Renaissance period.
Dickens is the greatest Victorian novelist.
So who is (are) the greatest modernist writer(s) of the English language? Try to be as exclusive as possible in your answer.

Why ask questions you already know the answer to?

I think you know the answer. One of them you've posted, the other had breasts.

>the other had breasts.
Never knew that about Faulkner

>American
>English language
nice mee-meeh massa

George RR Martin probably. No prose can be as vivid as his. It is good and purple prose.

Joyce is definitely the best modernist but who is the best postmodernist? Pynchon?

Hilarious coming from someone who thinks Woolf worth reading

Borges, Robbe-Grillet, Pynchon

Hilarious coming from a shitposter

I was only replying to your incoherent peasant gibberish

Philip Roth

For Modernism, Joyce is the most obvious choice.
Gaddis and Gass, though he doesn't consider himself to be a postmodernist.

Borges bridges the gap between modernism and postmodernism, but I wouldn't call him a postmodernist.

Just because DFW said it doesn't make it true

Just because Borges writes in a surreal style doesn't make him a postmodernist, either.

>Dickens is the greatest Victorian novelist.

>Dickens

Dickens is the J.K. Rowling of Victorian fiction.

Pierre Menard isn't postmodern?

Tlon Uqbar Whatever Whatever is closer to postmodernism than Pierre Menard.

It really isn't

George Eliot is superior to Dickens in every way.

Wow good point

>who is the best postmodernist? Pynchon?
Unless we are trying to be contrarians, yes.

>Robbe-Grillet

>all this Dickens hate
Off yourselves retards

No Herman Melville mentions? Herman Melville.

Le voyeur

about as good as your original baseless assertion

He wrote one good book
If you actually think he's the greatest modernist you're an idiot

>He wrote one good book
Same could be said for Joyce.
>If you actually think he's the greatest modernist you're an idiot
If you actually think he's a modernist at all, you're an idiot.
