What are some books about purgatory-like worlds?
Infinitely vast and empty planes, complex labyrinths with no exits or ends, rooms where leaving through the back door will only take you back in through the front door, things of this nature.

I'm so angry, my library system, the entire fucking system serving millions of people, has essays on borges but none of his godamn books.

Some people like the feel of actual books.
Anything by Beckett. Some may argue that his characters are in some sort of hell, but that is un to you to decide.

good numbers. the road's kind of like that but not really since there's a road and all.

my library system is nothing but alphabetical characters arranged at random in infinite permutations. some say if you look deep enough into it you'll find the word of GOD, but to be honest it's kind of a pain in the ass.

I'm interested in this question too. I read a great (albeit genre-fiction) book called Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell a few years ago that featured precisely this, it would be nice to see some literary-fiction interpretations.
Hard to take that pic seriously when the actual castle is in Brittany.

They tore down that old labyrinth years ago, said it was mucking up the view.
