Yes. The Brothers Karamazov genuinely made me shed many tears. Other books have choked me up a bit but not to that extent.

Yes! The part where Patroclus begs Achilles to retrieve his body. Also I remember unironically crying at something in the first 50 pages of Gravity’s Rainbow. There was as a bit where Pynchon traced the lineage of a modest, idyllic family juxtaposed by a rocket falling. Hit me like a brick. Pynchon is great!
