…for "religious arguments" about editors. Instead of belittling such sentiments, you might want to find out why they're so prevalent and whether they are indeed harmful. I suggest you read Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground and Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain. These books have awarded me a lot of insight on the subject.
Another excellent book that injects you into an unstable protagonist is Fyodor Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground. Can be read in a day. Highly recommend. This was my first intro to Russian lit.
A few of this year's highlights for me and my notes on the books, where available. Fiction - Notes from Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky - https://papertrail.biblish.com/books/2ab29d16-0cb1-4ef8-8cde... Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen - https://papertrail.biblish.com/books/65214629-29ac-45a6-b474... Bleak House…
If you're looking for examples critical of humanity you have lots of options (mostly from the last two centuries). Notes from Underground and The Death of Ivan Ilyich fit the bill. I reread the former relatively recently (first time since college). It's dark, not for the easily affected.
I wonder how the 'psychological novel' which was supposed to be invented in James' The Portrait of a Lady (1880) (according to the article) is distinct from, e.g., Crime and Punishment (1866) (or Notes from Underground, though I guess that was a novella so it doesn't count). Is Portrait of a Lady more psychologically focused, or is the way it treats the psychological content somehow different?
I found The Plague to be quite enjoyable, while I've struggled through Notes from Underground and The Idiot (the latter moreso because of its length). The Stranger and The Fall by Camus are also incredible, I hope to read all of them in their original French sometime soon.
……针对编辑器的“宗教级口水战”。与其贬低这种情绪，不如探究一下它们为什么如此普遍，以及到底有没有害。建议你读读陀思妥耶夫斯基的《地下室手记》和托马斯·曼的《魔山》。这两本书在这个问题上给了我很多启发。

另一本能把你直接带入精神不稳定主角内心的好书是陀思妥耶夫斯基的《地下室手记》。一天就能读完，强烈推荐。这是我接触俄国文学的敲门砖。

如果你想找批判人性的作品，选择多得很（大多出自过去两个世纪）。《地下室手记》和《伊凡·伊里奇之死》就很对路。我前不久刚重读了前者（大学以来的第一次）。基调很阴暗，心理承受能力弱的慎入。

我很好奇，按文中所说是在詹姆斯的《贵妇画像》（1880）中首创的“心理小说”，究竟跟比如《罪与罚》（1866）（或者《地下室手记》，不过我猜那是中篇所以不算）有什么区别？是《贵妇画像》更侧重心理层面，还是它处理心理内容的方式有所不同？

我觉得《鼠疫》读起来挺惬意的，而《地下室手记》和《白痴》我啃得都很吃力（后者更多是因为篇幅太长）。加缪的《局外人》和《堕落》也极其精彩，希望不久后能用法语原文把它们都读一遍。
