There's no need. Ecology simply isn't about nationalism and cringy conservative political ideology. It's a neutral science. Sure, if you want to understand ecological ethics, there is a place for this sort of information, but ecology is purely about numbers (population ecology, simulations, etc), legislation, and practical habitat management. Nothing to do with "ecofascism" and shit.

ULYSSES
by James Joyce
as you just read Portrait. Check out Dubliners first if you haven't already.

THE LIFE AND TIMES OF MICHAEL K
by JM Coatzee
is another one you might like. Aligns well with some of your interests. (Kafka, Celine, Hamsun). Plus it's a quick read.

THE ROAD and THE BORDER TRILOGY
by Cormac McCarthy.
are similar to Hamsun, and would also segue well into reading Moby-Dick.

Also check out 19th century Russians such as Gogol and Dostoevsky. They influenced a lot of what you read.

I've never seen a psychoanalysis chart but the best place to start is with Freud. His writing is very readable. Where to start depends on what you're interested in.

The unconscious: start with The Interpretation of Dreams
Sexuality: start with Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality
Id, ego, superego: start with The Ego and the Id
Modern society: start with Civilization and its Discontents

Or if you want a sampling of the breadth of psychoanalysis, you could start with Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis, which were lectures Freud gave to the public. It's a pretty long book though, about 600 pages, and there were some follow up lectures collected in New Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis.

The chart should really be called EcoFascism rather than Deep Ecology. The whole idea of Deep Ecology is to remove hierarchies- including those between humans and other species.
Deep Ecology & Fascism are inherently incompatible because of this (and many other) reason. Arne Naess would be turning in his grave off of lits shitty co-opting of the Deep Ecology movement and presenting it through a fascist lens. All it does is show a woefully abysmal understanding of what Deep Ecology actually is.
