Fyodor Dostoyevsky - The Idiot
the ending is such a powerful portrayal of the human condition's tragedy. When life breaks you and strips of you of whatever you love, you reach to an end. And the only thing you can do is to show kindness and forgiveness.

i'll try that, i have to cop to never having read dostoyevsky.
it reminds me that tolstoy's death of ivan ilyich was the first book i remember making me cry, the whole think is shattering.
seize the day, by saul bellow, who died this month, was the second. RIP.

Where The Red Fern Grows-I'm a sap I know.
King Lear-the most tragic of Shakespeare's plays, it doesn't have the suicide like in Hamlet, but when Lear and Cordelia die, it's the saddest moment in any Shakespeare.
