Honestly, I'm far more into sociology and philosophy than economics so most of my suggestions will be based on those!

I couldn't recommend Camus' The Rebel or
The Myth Of Sisyphous

Ooooh or Jean-Paul Sartre's (or as you may know him: one of the leftists who tried to abolish the age of consent) The Wall or
Existenialism Is A Humanism

These are the kinds of works that inform my worldview more than any other, and I believe them to be great jumping off points into abusrdism and existentialism respectively (though Existenialism Is A Humanism could also be replaced by a much stronger work of his, Being and Nothingness )

Nothing really, you can go right to it. But it's not light reading and might not resolve your concerns, especially if Man's Search for Meaning didn't immediately help. What Frankl offers in that book is basically a patronus. Not that Harry Potter isn't a way of life but it's not a rigorous framework either. It's a charm in your pocket, if you can find one that's strong enough to withstand scrutiny and repeated use.

Because of your other questions The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus. It gets to the heart of the question.
