Who doesn't like looking at reflections in water?

Several stories from the Metamorphoses, the one that comes to mind immediately is the story of Narcissus and Echo
The Romance of The Three Kingdoms, that Kongming death.
Outlaws of The Marsh, it's built on its amazing cast of characters. The one that always stands out in my mind is Sagacious Lu (also awesome death).
The Bell Jar, most realistic representation of depression in literature, and Esther Greenwood is a big part of that.

I've actually never had this happen to me before. Books just aren't capable of making me feel this way, as far as I can tell.

>Number 3

Capital by Karl Marx, that analysis of how capitalism functions.
The Dispossessed by Ursula K LeGuin, that exploration of the virtues and flaws of an anarchist society.
