Kafka on the Shore The Possibility of an Island The Unbearable Lightness of Being The Road

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time would be my pick. If you want to feel really horrible after reading something, try We Need to Talk About Kevin. If you’re open to manga, Goodnight Punpun is one of the saddest works of fiction I’ve read.

The Road by Cormac McCarthy, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow by Zoulfa Katouh, They Went Left by Monica Hess, Don’t Cry for Me by Daniel Black, and A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness are the saddest books I’ve read
