I`m looking for a book like Majora's Mask.

>Dark atmosphere
>Looming threat of death
>Subtle but growing discord
>Dissolution of moral values
>Not everyone can be helped
>Existential loneliness
>Eternal recurrence
>Grief and death

I consider those to be some of the themes presented in Majora's Mask. What bookshould portray these themes?

Sorry, but you're literally looking for Infinite Jest.

Lord of the Rings has most of that and is probably the closest you're gonna get to Zelda in book form.

Also, A Song of Ice and Fire borrows concepts from Zelda and is pretty much exactly what you described.

Blood meridian is the grown up version of everything you asked for.

that's definitely a bit more intense than "themes from majoras mask".

He probably wants something more edgy and fantastical

Book of the New Sun. Because of the dying sun, the atmosphere is literally dark. It hits every mark on your list as well.
