I just saw my sister give birth and am traumatized.
I gagged just as the child was emerging, and though it's /x/-tier I feel like I genuinely participated in that experience (i.e. the gagging was necessary for the child to emerge, my sister was responding with shouts answering my thoughts while looking at me, etc.)
Infinite Jest went from a pretty good book with some strange aspects to an explanation of what I experienced, especially in seeing the video of the pregnant woman who will kill you and become your mother was how I felt and it all clicked with the kid who is me but I guess not really idk and I'm still shook, there's more to IJ and what I felt but it's probably been talked half to death by oldfags.
Any other books for this feel?
I'm reading the Bible vigorously since I'm a pleb who only ever read small sections growing up, I'm hoping maybe Guenon and traditionalism might have some answers and the bottom three on pic related rn because memes (Women and Men opening with a birth, Recognitions referencing "beautiful" "copies", not sure about 2666 but I'm gonna read it further anyway) but I just want to know from other anons if there's any other books for coping, philosophy or literature are welcome.
is this how I prepare for death?

I'd substitute The Tunnel for Women and Men. By now most of us have realized McElroy is overrated so he's no longer much of a meme. America's foremost prose stylist, however...
