Fear and Trembling
Søren Kierkegaard not only transformed Protestant theology but also anticipated twentieth-century existentialism and provided it with many of its motifs. Fear and Trembling and The Book on Adler–addressed to a general audience–have the imaginative excitement and intense personal appeal of the greatest literature. Only Plato and Nietzsche have matched Kierkegaard’s ability to give ideas so compellingly vivid and dramatic a shape.

The most powerful perspective on faith and Christianity I've ever experienced. This book has really affected me deeply. This is a little easier to read and understand than Concluding Unscientific Postscript, but I recommend that beginners use an external source like a college professor or a "existentialism for dummies" book (I used both, no shame). This book is worth the "thinking muscle" aches.

I recommend reading this while listening to Henryk Górecki Beatus Vir and Symphony 2 very loudly on an aeroplane.
