I want to read the most absolutely crushingly sad novels that deal with the failure of love so I never accidentally forget and start dating again. Please help me find such novels.

Thanks.
I guess also I will read any genre on this subject. Doesn't have to be novels, not sure why I was so specific in the OP. Just so long as it is crushingly sad and deals with failed love, I'm in. I just tend to read more fiction than poetry/drama/non-fiction.

Groovy. I've read Hunger and it was phenomenal.
Joseph Green
Part of 1984 proves that love is often instrumental (Winston doesn't really appear to be in love, she's just the best he can get given his situation). Also, despite their relation, they both quickly give each-other up after interrogation and torture. He can't love her anymore afterwards.
Carson Reyes
The Fault in Our Stars
Levi Sullivan
I've actually never read 1984 and I do have a copy in the queue. Good to know, maybe I'll move it up. Thanks!
