What are the best novels to read if one is severely depressed?

Asked by avartan (22points) October 8th, 2009

I am severely depressed and isolated. I need something to read that will make me feel better, not worse. Sometimes things too light make things worse…I don’t want to read some happy go-lucky tale when my reality is so bleak.
That being said, what works of classical literature can help me feel better, or at least understand this chronic darkness i’ve been experiencing for so long?
