Mount Analogue by Rene Daumal (the Shattuck translation) It’s a surreal allegory about journeys and one’s experience when “seeking” (however defined) This book almost electrically invigorated my sense of existence and appreciation for life’s variety. If you intend to read it, I’d heavily recommend averting your eyes from all descriptions/ synopses/reviews. But if you must, the Goodreads description treads lightly, while the Wikipedia one has spoilers and (IMO) also misses the point
