Books that are about the relationship of the individual and a decaying world overtaken by technology, on overcoming nihilism, on being true to oneself in a world where most have abandoned truth?

Preferably with actual praxis.

Any books that you can recommend me? I know therapy before you say but it's not really an option at the moment but I will try at some point. I just need something I can relate to.

Someone recommended me Dostoevsky, so i'm going to get C&P, Notes from the Underground, and Brothers Karamazov.

I'm looking for books/poetry that's violently poetic. I guess Blood Meridian counts, but i'm having a hard to coming up with anything else.

Even though it's an album, Master of Puppets is another of the type of work i'm looking for.

What are some good Vietnam War Memoirs? Firsthand accounts from people who were there.

Is there a reccomendation image or route when beginning to look at art history or appreciating art in general. I like going to art galleries and would like to have a better grounding in what seperates them and why some pieces and artists are considered so important.
