>David Foster Wallace
>James Joyce
And others?

Other anons will try to guess things about you and will recommend you books.

Kokoro
Overcoming a depressive and suicidal period in my life to go back to uni and get my degree.
That I never learned a language or instrument or something as a kid.
I will live a quiet, stoic, straight edge life and I plan to marry and have many children.
