Anon no.
Start with Siddhartha.
>>8737145

>>8737145
A Christmas Carol

This.
And read The Master and Margarita or Siddhartha like suggested in this thread. Neither are long but are some of the most objectively /lit/ books

Just can't get on with novellas. A poem, a short story, a novel, fine. They are the brunch of literature, neither one nor the other.
PS. Most of those "novellas" aren't novellas, they are short novels. Which is fine.
Besides being novellas (well some of them at least) a lot of those have absolutely nothing in common
Notes From The Underground is good if you want a random selection though

why all the fiction are you skairt of real lifes

What did you expect? No one cites philosophy or history textbooks as the greatest literature of all time, and even so, Plato's Republic and Aurelius's Meditations are nonfiction and on there as well. It would be pretty funny for people to unironically read The Stranger for escapism
But I would agree with you, Kierkegaard makes real life seem pretty spooky

Is he really "the final boss of philosophy"?

The only book of philosophy I've ever read was Fear and Trembling and I'm fairly confident in my grasp of it.
So no.
