I'm going to order a few books and then go to bed, please recommend me some. My three favorite books are probably:
-The Stranger
-Notes from the Underground
-The Idiot

I've found out that I enjoy reading books with very abnormal main-characters if that helps to narrow it down.
Thanks in advance.

Almost done with The Plague at the moment. I suggest that.

The Odyssey is always good too.

Maybe you'd like the autobiographical half of Lanark.
Personally I hated it, but lot of people love it. If you feel like a misunderstood special snowflake, you'd probably like it.

You could order Beckett's trilogy - Molloy, Malone Dies, and The Unnameable.

Also you might like Thomas Bernhard. Woodcutters is a good place to start. You can preview them here:
