The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, I feel like very impervious person, yet I couldnt go on, just couldnt, I couldnt find the will to flip the page. Ended on about 150 pages of second volume

Platform or Atomised (I can't remember which one was the darker) and Blue of Noon. Also, the already mentioned The Room.

Oh, and God Jr and Lala Pipo. I don't know. I could probably narrow down the selection to one if I really thought 'hard' about the subject.

>> No.1046463

>>1046390
yes its horribly depressing and terrifyingly realistic, some parts of vol.1 are strictly historical and boring for some i guess. Solzhenitsyns memory is just mindblowing after several years of labourcamp he was able to remember all those details.
