This is not my bookshelf, but I'm curious as to what /lit/ can guess about the owner based off its contents.

- Intuitive, sensitive person
- Reactionary against formal reason
- Politically aligned to the left
- World awareness
- Seeks to solve own problems by helping others
- Insecure, yet introspective
- Depression, emotionally unstable
- Seeking for a change in life

Fits with several kinds of people, so I won't say anything about age, or sex.

Is someone smart enough to point out what books could support these asserts, and why?

I disagree. Probably future researcher, with an imagination to appreciate fantasy books.

If no funding, maybe board shooter, yet a smart person, might actually shoot something smarter than bullets.
