Oh. In that case I have actually recommendations.

It isn't really a book ABOUT these things, but it sounds like one, and it's an incredible story about stupid people.

A Confederacy of Dunces. Maybe one of the saddest stories behind a book ever (the author offed himself because he thought he was a failure, his mother pushed for his book to be published for years before an editor actually read it and realized it was pure genius published it.)

It's a great read and it helped shape my childhood. My dad used to read me bedtime stories, but we never really stopped. Instead every night before bedtime he and I would sit by the fireplace and read together in silence, and if I saw something funny I'd show it to him, and vice versa. It was only when I left for college that we stopped, though I kept sending him letters (later emails) about what I was reading until he died.

I forget where I'm going with this. Oh, right. Read that fucking book, because that's where it all started for me. The love of literature.

Thanks for the advice. Already read it years ago. Sadly even with that title it does not talk about stupidity. I saw it more like a clumsy protagonist that does some things (dn't want to spoil) without knowing it.
Can't explain myself better, english isn't my first language.

OP, it depends, Do you want like, factual books, philosophy or novels?

>>8959582
I see. My wrong for not being more specific in the first post.
I'm seeking for philosophy or factual/academic books, not novels.

>>8959365
Maybe something like Glamorama? Oblivious central character who is surrounded by idiotic people (and some sketchy ones)

You can't just pick German grammar and replace it with English words. Fuck, this triggers me so hard I am genuinely mad right now.
