Looking for your recommendations of books that will literally re-wire the way I think, blow my mind, flip me upside down.
Last thread most people recommended Leviathan by Thomas Hobbes.

Confessions by Augustine was pretty life changing. Everything after Book IX isn't essential though unless your really interested in patristic exegesis

I know you're memeing, but you can't find anything wrong with this list
Naked Lunch
Because all these "life changing" books are just to make you feel better, if not about life, then about yourself, to feel special and elect.
And there is nothing to feel good about. We are all in a death camp, getting worked to the bone, and not a one of us will get out alive. A lot of people will tell you that you are special, that you are different, but if you look a second time, they all just want that last saved food ration you got, which is all that you will ever be worth to anyone.
And wouldn't you? Of course you would, you little scumbag.
Do you have a girlfriend and a job?
Brave New World has one interesting idea, executed very poorly.
A Song of Ice and Fire for providing many of my favorite characters of all time and exploring actually layered complex issues, without ever being preachy about it.

That's interesting. I'm reading it at the moment and I end up laughing more than anything else. I don't think our reactions are all that different though, they both probably stem from being able to relate to his thoughts and actions.
This
Same. Reading it was like looking in a mirror and I was disgusted by what I saw. I had to change things afterwards or kill myself.
I'm reading Jung: Man and his symbols.
Its flipping me inside out in a good way. I realize in past i was outside in.
No, I wasn't necessarily memeing, i just have a crave for expansion of peripherals in my perspective. They are great literature
