The immoralist. By Andre Gide, translated by Alan Sheridan.

You’re a young wealthy guy at the turn of the 19th century, and you marry as a favor to your dying father, but then fall very sick while traveling in N. Africa, and though your wife nurses you back to health, you realize you haven’t been living life for your own true self…which doesn’t really want a wife…so you become a self-actualized asshole.
