Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
C. S. Lewis
@but_stefanie @LulledNoreaster learning about her after reading A Grief Observed, & Till We Have Faces (on which she had a massive influence) my respect for C.S. Lewis shot through the roof for landing this baddie.

Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch
Neil Gaiman
@tallndiabolical truly it's the cast that's going to get me into it, one of my hot takes is that Good Omens is as terrific as it is because *cough* it's 1/2 terry pratchett, so I feel you. But the lead IS what you just described, to the letter

Much ADO about Nothing
Shakespeare
(best tip ever for shakespeare, any play, but especially shakespeare. I discovered him in the wild, & reading much ado about nothing aloud to the mirror in my bedroom was one of those "i'm falling in love with the english language" moments) https://t.co/PmvxoaGEL6

The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir

Four Quartets
T. S. Eliot
@AlexiSargeant Yes! Oops this is Little Gidding, the 4th of T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets, imo it's his best work, written after he became a Christian, blending musings on creativity & philosophy & theology (East Coker, the 2nd, has a stunning Good Friday section too.)

Inferno: Italian-English Parallel Text
Dante
@alectothe9th lol I get that. maybe you practice imagining by writing or saying out loud some big/small dreams? because hey it was medieval poets that ended up recording things like that the earth was round (dante's inferno!) don't write yourself (or any dreamy, maladjusted one) out!

Stardust
Neil Gaiman
@uponyourlove ok but I LOVE this for you 💗 tbh I can see you as a Stardust person, the Neil Gaiman of it all, the Claire Danes, the multiplicity of to-be-famous hunks, I see it.
