I am looking for some suggestions on books that are well written, deep, soulful, and moving. But no romance and no sexual content. I would prefer classic literature and books with a historical, western, dystopian, or horror setting.
I’m a very avid reader and have read hundreds of books, mostly classics. I also very much enjoy audiobooks because I love multitasking. But my heart is far too broken from the death of the man I love for me to read any romance, sex or relationships. I need something to take my mind off my heartbreak. I still love well written sad books over flakey fake upbeat books.
A few favorite are authors are Cormac McCarthy, Larry McMurtry, Steinbeck, Dostoevsky, Thomas Hardy, Wallace Stegner, and Orwell.
