Literature can only help you realize evident truths. You aren't going to read a book and magically become masculine. You have to work and strive for any change fully, consciously, and continually.
That being said, Hemmingway.

I've been reading Epictetus lately, and it's making me appreciate responsibility and self-control, which I suppose are classically masculine traits. I want to accord with nature
>tfw i didnt like to whom the bell tolls
Marcus Aurelius - Meditations
Seneca - Letters from a Stoic
Discourses of Epictetus

Ha what do you know, good to know I'm on the right track then.
I suggest you read my book, Primate Principles.
Yeah OP, reading is never, ever, ever going to make you masculine in of itself. People don't see people reading and go "wow fuck that guy is so masculine!"
At best it's going to give you some guidance on how to live masculine or some reasoning on why masculine ideals are great. This is the problem with self-help books by the way.
I mean I've gotten some masculine inspirations from reading but part of Masculinity is using actions rather than words to show things.

What I mean is, OP, books are only at most going to convince you to do something masculine, you can cut out the middle man and just act more masculine. Doing this would actually be more masculine than reading.
