	While the Meme Trilogy has been established for years at this point, their have been an increasing number of other candidates to either supplement or replace a work or works within the official trilogy--some with more merit than others. To this end, /lit/ has flirted with the idea of expanding the trilogy to include a fourth book and expanding the trilogy to a tetraology. The criteria for inclusion seem to be in line with the above suggested shared characteristics of the core trilogy works. Among the candidates for a fourth work include:
	* The Culture of Critique
	* Behead All Satans
	* The Book of the New Sun
	* Fanged Noumena
	* The Legacy of Totalitarianism in a Tundra
	* Mein Kampf
	~~Of course, oldfags of /lit/ resist this change, being the good traditionalists that they are.~~
