i see. i know I've mentioned it plenty of times before but my recommendation would be Dune by Frank Herbert. Yes it is sci-fi but it is excellent. at least try it.

Let's see, Friedrich Nietzsche, Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, Franz Kafka, etc.

All of these gentlemen were influenced by the Mad Russian.

camus definitely, i would recommend his most famous work (the stranger)

sartre's nausea is good

definitely check out tolstoy as well. i highly recommend the death of ivan ilych, it's a short story you should be able to get through easily, but i love its message.
