@kaia Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky.
Every time I go through a depressive phase (like a month ago when I broke up with my gf), I read it.

@finlaydag33k and it cheers you up? it does the opposite to me

@kaia i want to re-read "gödel, escher, bach", i read it like 25 years ago, wonder how much of it is obsolete now.

@lain it does sound too smart for me, but I'll try it

@kaia it's very readable, you'll have no problems, and it is full of ideas

@kaia It doesn't quite "cheer me up", it just reminds me that I can either make the choice to fall to despair or get more stronk so I can at least die without regrets when the time comes.

@kaia Illuminatus trilogy by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson

@kaia excerpt from critique of pure reason
