/lit/ - Literature

Post books that deal with neuroticism, or have a neurotic atmosphere, and other similar topics.

I'm starting to repent of starting to study Law. I always thought that this was my destiny, it seemed to be a career I would fit in, and many of my heroes had studied it, yet now that I'm studying it, it just doesn't fill me, it feels soulless, it doesn't satisfy what I'm looking for, even if I don't know what I'm really looking for.
What other options did I have? It seems like the only career I could get a job in: Literature, Philosophy and History students can't get a job, even if their subject of study is a hundred times more interesting. And the possibility of finding a job is still low, considering the amount of lawyers out there. What would separate me from any other lawyer? Why would anyone prefer me over anyone else?
I just wish I could seclude myself from the rest of society and dedicate all of my time to things I actually love.

I'm just like him. Inteligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humour.

I wanted to be a writer, and Kafka is one of my favorites.
Is a soul-crushing career. At least now I know how Franz felt.

Can someone explain Aristotle's argument to me, that there can't be an idea of the Good because of order or something? At the beginning of the Nichomachean ethics.

How to achieve clarity? I have lots of philosophical ideas in my head,most of which are of course not my own, but it feels like an unordered heap of things which I seem to retain on an aesthetic basis. And I want out.

Do you consider /lit/ an authentic part of your life? Do you feel a sincere tenderness when you see a picture of frog sitting at his desk or a doomer with a smile?

Aside from Kafka, who are other schizoid writers?

>At the focus of Hawes' investigation are pictures he stumbled across in the British Library in London and the Bodleian in Oxford of the pornography to which Kafka subscribed while in his twenties. They include images of a hedgehog-style creature performing fellatio, golem-like male creatures grasping women's breasts with their claw-like hands and a picture of a baby emerging from a sliced-open leg.
