"contemporary texts aren't ever as meaningful/artistic/etc as classics." WRONG! Here are a few prime examples of beautiful modern writing:

"All I can do is stand on the curb and say 'Sorry about the blood in your mouth. I wish it was mine.'" - Richard Siken, Crush

“They both know the looping shape of pain—it changes and quiets but never ends. There is a strange comfort in its constancy. Memories of what was lost are also reminders of what was held.” - Lily Brooks-Dalton, The Light Pirate

"Cold came over me, but I was warm inside with guilt. The feeling nuzzled against me. It pressed against my heart like a soft animal and slept in my life." - Marie Rutkoski, The Midnight Lie

"Surviving's ugly work, and here I am, so hideously alive." - Trista Mateer, Girl, Isolated

“I've taken what they've given me and turned it into a mockery of them. I will turn it into what destroys them. If they want me to be a monster one step closer to God, that's fine. In what world was their God ever a benevolent one?” - Andrew Joseph White, Hell Followed With Us
