Not sure if it's the only book I'd recommend if I have to stick to the rules, I think others have already done that for me here but:
A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole
is very funny but also the back story to how it got published is both sad and interesting.
...and if I can pick a second book:
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintainance by Robert M. Pirsig.
...and a third:
Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
- haakonhr 5y agoWow! More or less the three books I would've suggested in the same order. I would happily get some more suggestions until I encounter a book I haven't read (e-mail in bio)
- Lio 5y agoThank you, that’s very kind to say. So many good books in this thread already. I could suggest though: Hagakure - Yamamoto Tsunetomo Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind - Shunryu Suzuk For something lighter I like anything by William Gibson or Neal Stephenson. The Quicksilver trilogy is great as is Anatheme.
