I'm unironically convinced that Infinite Jest will be among these in about 50-100 years just because it reflects our current time period so well. As writing quality and care for plot deteriorates as today's millennials inevitably bastardize education, on the off chance that civilization is still around in 1,000 years I think Infinite Jest will be read to reflect on the many absurdities of people in this time with regards to entertainment, constant stimulation, addictive behavior, etc. This is the first era in human history with such an extreme emphasis on entertainment and stimulation and I think it will be studied.
