Psychological Novels For Avid Readers

By Agnes Franco


Psychology enthusiasts who are also into reading can now merge both interests in one. Psychological novels are readily available to spark your curiosity and get your minds going. People who are into this kind of topic are fortunate because it is like mixing business and pleasure for them.

Literary pieces of this kind of genre were discovered in the early medieval period in Japan. Books coming from the 1700s - 1800s are also found. Newer ones from 1900s are just as many. Because of its abundance, it is now a book category itself. That is how vast your choices are.

On record, the earliest found book was written by Murasaki Shikibu. This author from Japan is believed to be from the 12th century. The title of the novel is The Tale of Genji. It is basically about the son of Japan's emperor and his experience as he went down to lower classes of society to learn about human behavior.

The name of Don Quixote would certainly ring a bell. Many people are familiar with this fictional tale by Miguel de Cervantes. The plot of the story is about the unconventional Don and his companion Sancho Panza who is also his neighbor. The book focuses on chivalry and the psychology behind it.

Written by Chuck Palahniuk and released in 1996, Fight Club soon became the basis for a Brad Pitt movie with the same title. This story revolves around the dual personality problem of the main character and it will really keep you engrossed as the story progresses. The film also involved accomplished actor Edward Norton.

psychological novels have created a category for itself and the selection just keeps growing. Folks inclined with this topic have so many to choose from. Just a trip to the local bookshop can jumpstart you with your search. As always, the internet is always sure to give you some titles and let you place orders for hard to find books.
