What's your favorite light reading? I need something to read before bed but nothing I want to be too focused on as to keep me awake.

inb4 someone ironically says Ulysses.

Short story collections. I read scifi collections in college, they're usually light and entertaining and have some sort of hook to make them interesting. You could try PKD's collected stories if you want something a little less cheesy (he wrote a shitload of them it's four volumes). Ballard's really early stuff is fun too.

Anything by Rohld Dahl is /comfy/ af and your brain hardly has to think just let him take you on a little adventure with quirky characters.

Sort of a kids story usually but they can be dark and I think they hold up well for light adult reading.

Read Sei Shonagon's wonderful Pillowbook (full of observations about the weather and lists of her favorite and least favorite things) and then her rival Shikibu's far longer Tales of the Gengi. Though the burden's light, the quality's high. I sincerely believe that this is just the thing.

About a month ago an anon said Soseki was Japan's greatest modern author. What is his great work?
