One key characteristic is the exploration of the absurd. In existential fiction, situations can be highly illogical. For example, in 'Waiting for Godot', the two characters waiting endlessly for someone who might not exist is absurd. Also, these books focus on the individual's experience. They are less about grand social or historical events but more about how a single person copes with existence. And self - awareness is a big part of it. Characters are often forced to confront their own nature, like in 'Notes from Underground' where the narrator has a deep self - examination.

One great existential crisis fiction book is 'The Stranger' by Albert Camus. It follows the life of Meursault, a man who seems detached from society and its norms, which leads to an exploration of the absurdity of life. Another is 'Fight Club' by Chuck Palahniuk. It delves into themes of consumerism and the search for identity through the unnamed narrator's experiences. Also, 'Siddhartha' by Hermann Hesse is worth reading. It tells the story of a man's spiritual journey in search of self - understanding and meaning, which often involves moments of existential questioning.
