Jealousy by Alain Robbe-Grillet. Everything is neutral. Everything is an object. Everything is described and enumerated. Everything repeats. Everything is numb. He keeps crushing that centipede over and over and the shadow of the pillar moves ever so slightly. It’s one of the most tense, cool books I’ve ever read.

On the last pages of pic related.
(Title is literally "Death Rode out from Persia")

It's a modern masterpiece. Feels like I'm reading someone's feverdream.
The story itself is about an alcoholic-chainsmoking lowlife with literary ambitions recounting his affair with a Jewish girl in 1970s Hungary as he looks through his notes that he written while drunk.
I fucking love this book.

A friend gave me Robin Sharmas "The leader who had no title" as an early Christmas present. Ran through it in a day and found it as basic and superficial as Coelho's fast food novels.

Not only was the story boring and predictable, but the leadership qualities, albeit some being valuable, were over-shadowed by the feel of a global HR megacorp slave inducing mentality and overplayed positivity with no one even trying to confront the ideas presented in the book.
