Genres
Existentialist literature is a genre that explores the meaning and purpose of human existence, often through the lens of individual experience and subjective perception. These books often delve into themes of freedom, choice, and responsibility, and may challenge traditional notions of morality and societal norms. Existentialist literature can be introspective and philosophical, and may offer readers a unique perspective on the human condition and the search for meaning in a complex and often chaotic world.
The "Experimental" category of books is characterized by works that challenge traditional literary conventions and push the boundaries of form and content. These books often incorporate unconventional narrative structures, language, and themes, and may experiment with different mediums such as poetry, visual art, or multimedia. The goal of experimental literature is to create new and innovative ways of storytelling that challenge readers' expectations and expand the possibilities of what literature can be.

1. Cuando Ya No Importe by Juan Carlos Onetti
The novel delves into the life of a disillusioned man who retreats to a remote, decaying town to escape his past and the failures that haunt him. Through a series of fragmented memories and encounters with eccentric characters, the protagonist reflects on themes of existential despair, lost love, and the passage of time. The narrative's melancholic tone and introspective style paint a vivid picture of a man grappling with the meaning of his existence in a world that seems indifferent to his suffering.
