This line is from the novel Paradise, which was published in the year 1997 by the author Toni Morrison who lived from 1931 to present. This author is also known for other works, including The Bluest Eye and A Mercy.
This novel is about an all black town in the south during segregation era. There are many tensions that occur in the small town and the novel discusses the various trials and other issues that occur living in a black town. \
"You must go on, I can't go on. I'll go on."
This line is from the novel The Unnamable, which was published in the year 1954 by the author Samuel Beckett who lived from 1906 to 1989. This author is also known for other works, including Murphy and Watt.
This novel is entirely one monologue by an unnamed main character, likely the "Unnamable." There is very little plot progression or anything important that takes place. The main character seems to ramble on for the whole novel. 
Do either of these books interest you? I enjoyed Sula and Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison.
