The wind, the bird flying away. The idea of God. And it can keep you as busy as anything else, and happier. The Phantom Tollbooth, by Norton Juster. Boredom and depression are far from merely childish demons, not least because an adult has to battle them for so much longer. When [main character] Milo thinks at the book's beginning that 'it seemed a great wonder that the world, which was so large, could sometimes feel so small and empty,' it must strike a chord with every reader, young or old. The Opposite of Loneliness: Essays and Stories, by Marina Keegan.

Five days after graduation, Keegan was killed in a car accident on Cape Cod. In it Keegan writes with an eerie urgency: Sophie's World, by Jostein Gaarder. A climactic philosophical garden party becomes the novel's most comic and memorable set piece, inserting into this Norwegian book of virtues, with its homage to the Western intellectual canon and its spirit of common sense, a counterspirit of carnival and sexual anarchy. Poems, by Mary Oliver. In 'On Thy Wondrous Works I Will Meditate,' one of her best poems, she offers a riff on the th psalm, stepping through the thickets of soul-searching, attempting to locate and believe in belief itself The poem ends with a colloquy with God: The Portland writer Cheryl Strayed has proved during her tenure at the website the Rumpus, where she has helmed the Dear Sugar column since , that the only requirement is that you give great advice -- tender, frank, uplifting and unrelenting.

Strayed's columns, now collected as 'Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life From Dear Sugar,' advise people on such diverse struggles as miscarriage, infidelity, poverty and addiction, and it's really hard to think of anyone better at the job. The fact that it's been translated into more than languages from the original French is proof that its message resonates worldwide.

The Red Tent, by Anita Diamant. The 'red tent' is the traditional retreat for menstruating women, and a symbol of their mutual love and support in a world dominated by men Mortality, by Christopher Hitchens.

Young's too-weird-for-the-pulpit thoughts about how Adam's rib and the female uterus form a 'circle of relationship' have the appeal of knobby heirloom-produce in a world where much religion arrives vacuum-packed.
