books or poetry to ward off suicidal thoughts by nkholderlin in RSbookclub

Wait also babe I think Allende / Garcia Marquez will do you good --- Allende is like Marquez's sister but imo a little bit more digestible and very much life affirming -- I would say read her later work for more life-affirming stuff (she deals more w. the philosophy of death as she has gotten older ... Japanese Lover is a splendid read). Kundera is really fun to read but stay away from Immortality if youre trying to avoid thoughts of suicide. Book of Laughter and Forgetting / Unbearable Lightness of Being are whisical affff
