I found one walking one day. It was an old book on the secrets of metaphysics, missing it's front cover.
Cool book. Written in 1953.

I read a chapter and then went on with my life

Both Joyce and Pynchon wrote during lucid experiences when they were...uhm...chemically enhanced.
So you are reading intoxication thinking.
Similar to word salads, which are a trip if youve never heard one.

Psychopaths don't have emotional reactions.
They don't value objects, and they don't obsess about details.
Neurodivergents on the other hand...

No one ever brings up the idea that the character is on the spectrum and desperate to pass for non-divergent.

Reply to comment by WendellSanders01 in What is the strangest way you've found a book? by WendellSanders01
I can't recall. It was the first hint I would get as an adult that the universe listens and hints to us all the time. It was strange to find that book on the sidewalk.
It had a very particular black and white vortex logo too.
I'll have to find it in storage and return to this thread when I do.
I want to say it was something like "the hidden structure of the universe"
