>just know every language bro!
uh huh
Imagine how pretentious one has to be to post shit like this unironically (assuming, as I am, the OP is baiting)
>limiting yourself to 2-3 countries' literature

Is there anything more pleb than reading books in the original language?
>jealous monoglots can only read books in the original language
>patrician polyglots like myself can read the works of Goethe in French, the masterpieces of Proust in the superior Russian, Chinese and Japanese works in the opposite language, etc., opening up new vistas of interpretation and understanding
I tried reading a book in the original language once, just to see what it's like being a pleb, and it was a suffocating and nauseous experience. I pity those for whom there is no other option.
