Hi! After reading many books in my early childhood, I stopped completely at the age of 9.
Now, at the age of 27 I just re-discovered the hobby and want to start by reading ‘the essentials’ or the classics of literature.
I am kind of lost at the moment since I dont know where to start.
I really like stories with philosophical takes that make me think and get new perspectives.
I also like metaphorical and clever writing (seeing literature as an artform which ‘enhances’ the topics that are present in my mind and maybe also the way I talk).
And I like ancient and modern myth.
It doesn’t matter if its fictional or scientific books or if its old or new.
I hope you understand what I am looking for, its kind of hard to describe. But basically, if I wished for a signpost for movies you would recommend me the movies of Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, David Fincher, Martin Scorcese, David Lynch, Denis Villeneuve, Christopher Nolan etc. and maybe even Star Wars and Harry Potter.
Thanks in advance 🙂
