Suicidal isnt a mental state that anyone can understand beside yourself. Be more descriptive of what you want
is Tao Lin actually any good? I've seen people say he's OK, and other people say he's trash.
better than dfw at least
I think hes good but read his poetry first. At first youll think its shit but its more nuanced and carefully composed at second and third glance.
If you want a philosophical solution:
The Myth of Sisyphus by Camu
If you want a novel
Infinite Jest by DFW
Unironically
If you want to find hope:
The Book of Job.
The Death of Ivan Ilyich - Tolstoy ( You need to realize that Ivan led a mediocre and blank life but died so we can live and realize life is not meant to be lived following what others expect of you
If you want more despair:
Journey to the end of the Night - Celine
The Clown - Böll
Against the Grain - Huysmans
Hunger is also a good book in any case.

what translation do you recommend?

>forcing yourself to like garbage
I'm disappointed in you.
I didn't read it in english, neither in russian.
So I can't help you with that.
And the translation I read was the only available in my language.
Anyhow, for what I could gather on Veeky Forums apparently there is a couple of translators that shared letters with Tolstoy and it seems they are the best one.
omni pls dont do it

>solution is to embrace the absurd while ignoring the negative utility
Great Solution Al

The Complete Manual of Suicide by Wataru Tsurumi
maybe it's good maybe not, discuss
Does it bother anyone else that he protagonist author stand-in doesn't end up killing herself but Plath did? Like it kind of invalidates whatever resolution Plath makes in the book because they apparently weren't good enough even for her.

I usually drink coffee at 5am outside my front yard when I'm really really fucking sad. I usually drift into a peacefully mellow mood afterwards
gender is a social construct, user
It doesn't mean a person can't have one (or practice it if we're being sociologists)

Why are these dumb posters on Veeky Forums?
Go back to /b/.
I'd become suicidal if I had to read the ramblings of a petit-bourgeois SJW basic bitch
...she wrote it before she killed herself you fucking dunce.
The attempts however were in fact hers.
>my front yard
You mean
>my parents
>basic bitch
Amusing that you talk just like them.
gender is fluid, user
Job is a story about dealing with loss and hope. I guess I'm going to have to tip your fedora.

There are levels of hope and perseverance to be gleaned from pessimism. You'd already know this if you weren't such a surface reader.
