ulysses is literally about mundane life being made exciting or some shit innit? idk i didnt read it. but if a book is targeted at least somewhat at your interest area, and it is one of the best books of all time, and it only changes your perspective for 2 days, i dont think anything on this earth will do any more than that

Basically anyone who believes truth is in nuances.
John Williams' Stoner always leaves me feeling grateful to be alive.
