If you like sci-fi I recommend looking for some cyberpunks books, William Gibson is a must, his books are really good, in neuromancer he imagined humanity connected to a network to exchange information, the book is from 1984 and he certainly should already know about internet prototypes but even so it's cool to see this kind of representation in a different way, so I recommend Neuromancer

 

[Henry de Montherlant]

The Girls, Henry de Montherlant

Ecstasy, Ryu Murakami

Whatever, Michel Houellebecq

American Psycho, Bret Easton Ellis

Genitrix, François Mauriac

Sun and Steel, Yukio Mishima

Oblomov, Ivan Goncharov

Céline is a riot. Read him, starting with Journey to the End of the Night.

It seems your tastes run more toward fantasy, though, so I'd recommend Thomas Ligotti's Grimscribe collection or a Lovecraft anthology (even as corrupted as Redditors his name and legacy). For Sci-Fi, look into Phillip K Dick (Ubik, A Scanner Darkly, Flow Ny Tears...) and Gene Wolfe.

The Girls, Henry de Montherlant

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I've got it marked 'to read', so I'll probably get to it in a few years.

Saw Oblomov at the bookstore a while back and didn't pick it up. Sounds like I erred.

 

[PleaseKillMeLoseSkin]

Anything by David Irving tbh

Why dont you read psychology and philosophy? You can start with History of Modern Psychology by Schultz.
