/lit/ - Literature

I'm pretty stupid but I would like to share my stories. However, even though I'm pretty slow, I still can acknowledge my own limitations and I know I will have a hard time getting anything published

My mother just got diagnosed with uterine cancer and has one year to live. During this time I need to act as a beacon of optimism, show no weakness around her and also get a gf so she can die knowing her son is heterosexual and not a virgin. I also need to keep up with college because if I get kicked out she'll no doubt blame her illness and by extension herself.

What are some books that will help me cope with this? Literature, poetry, philosophy. I need anything I can to help me transform into the man I now so desperately need to be.

I have a question about this book too

I want to listen to this on audiobook at work. Is it too hard to follow in audio form?
