Its because any singular identity demands a not-identity and the consideration of the identity and the not-identity together leads one to the complete of the triad, the not-not-identity (of the identity in the not-identity itself).

In this transcendental sense three truly is magic and hence why OP is looking for the completion here

This or unironically Dead Souls by Gogol, moreso if you know what Gogol intended with the sequels that never materialized. Less theological of course, but its a great account of the human under the wheel in the 19th century. Though do read Faust first

Is Faust the same story as The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus? I've read the play by Marlowe, but Faust by Goethe is good I hear.

Fuck you, trilogies are fun.

Souvlaki - Loveless - Nowhere

On the Road - Fear and Loathing - The Electric Koolaid Acid Test

[3 unrelated films that go well together in order] I'm not a film guru I'm afraid.

Point is, trilogies are fun and fuck you
