It is basically a partial autobiography of a man who seeks so hard for 'the truth' that he snaps and becomes skitzo... Then the two parts of him struggle for control of his life.

The Onion Girl by Charles DeLint
Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand
Broken Girl by Stephan Kallos
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Veronika Choose to Die by Paulo Coelho
One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

I think I could keep going for a long time. I love to revisit books and the characters within them.

It may be dry but you will get something from it. All of Shakespeare, sonnets and prose included.

All of Poe's work.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Walter Scott, Anthony Trollope, William Thackery, Thomas hardy to name a few of the English ones.
