Which writers/novels explore sadness the best?

Also open to philosophers that explore it too.
It doesn't necessarily have to be about depression by the way.

I thought BolaƱo's collection 'The Return' had some great vignettes on sadness, loneliness, and desperation. Quick read, bunch of rly great stories. The prose is p fuckin epic. Enjoy.
