That is, books about them. Now we're talking. This is what I read for, although I'd add spiritual journeys as well.
Top Ten Books for Psychological Journeys, from the Guardian.
Among them:
Children of Violence Quintet by Doris Lessing
Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut Jnr
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig
I found the fifth book in Lessing's quintet, The Four-Gated City, to be moving and intense.
