The Time Machine. I re-read it many times over the course of a year and anytime I want my thoughts and imagination haunted. Not sure what or why it is but I always return to it.

The entire series of Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy just made me question what the point of life is. Why bother if we all die in the end. It just made me feel so meh, like I didn't really matter in the grand scheme of things and to just give up on everything because in the end it doesn't matter.

Isn't it written in a really absurd style?

Yes. I found it actually drew me into the story but others have found it distracting and annoying. It's a sort of... I don't know, faux 17th century dialect? I thought it worked in producing a sense of a different era.

I'm sure you could write a thesis about that or something.

Seriously, look up some of the interpretations that scholars have written about Arthur Gordon Pym. It's absurd.

I dont get it, wouldnt it take a couple million years or something, i would expect us to have fucking space travel by then and hopefully a more sustained economic system and population. If not, then we would probably already be dead or something. I dont really get the whole "sun is gonna die" thing.
