Who's your favorite author, /lit/, what's your favorite work by them, and what feels do you feel while reading it?
Mine:
>Author
Hemingway
>Work
The Sun Also Rises
>Feels
Two, in varying stages.
When I begin, I look at life with renewed vigor, and I wake up early and go biking and open the windows and enjoy the world.
Towards the middle, and on until the end, I get quite sad. There's parts while I'm reading that I just want to cry, for no reason that I can think of.

Overwhelming relief, amazement, surreality, happiness, tingling when he creates beautiful sentences, awareness, love and contempt for humanity in certain parts, awe.
