If by "100 Challenging Novels Scratch Off Chart," you mean 100 novels that are difficult for a dude of average IQ - OK, maybe slightly below average IQ according to the free online IQ test - to read and understand, then I suppose I would ultimately scratch off only about...0 of them. Buuut, if by "100 Challenging Novels Scratch Off Chart," you mean 100 novels that include Jackass-style dares and tests, send this 12 x 16 poster on over, baby, because I've got a false sense of immortality and a quarter ready to go!
Pop Chart's latest novel print comes from Ben Gibson and Patrick Mulligan. They've created an interactive poster of prestige, pompousness and, perhaps, posturing for those who opt to scratch off novels they've mostly just heard of, rather than actually read. Finnegans Wake. War & Peace. Naked Lunch, which is one I did try once, but it quickly became clear William S. Burroughs was writing about neither nudity nor food, so after about 10 pages I tossed it back on the shelf at Barnes & Noble, and returned to my Science Fiction & Fantasy section comfort zone.
The 100 Challenging Novels Scratch Off Chart is made in North Carolina, and categorizes tomes chronologically according to when their authors published them, starting with The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio in 1353, and going through Blake Butler's 2020 novel Alice Knott.
