/lit/ - Literature

The pursuit of pleasure is the source of literally all evil. every evil act is done for some sort of carnal satisfaction. obviously the need to feel good in some way motivates just about everything, but the more carnal the pleasure is, the more disconnected from higher meaning, the sharper the fixation on that pleasure becomes, the more narrow your vision becomes, the potent evil becomes, until you become completely disconnected from good and become serial killer tier deranged, like the decadent aristocrats torturing people, executing, raping, enslaving, destroying innocence, all because of the pure carnal pleasure produced in the act. when you take man and burn away all morality, all the higher meaning of life, you will be left with one thing: pure distilled carnal indulgence

What are the best depictions of hell in literature? Any equivalents like the underworld also welcome
