Tell me two books that'll teach me so much. Please.

  I'd recommend Steinbeck's East of Eden and Dostoyevsky's The Brothers Karamazov.

    thanks! I've been delaying the read of Brothers Karamazov. I'll look for the Steinbeck's.

      I second the Karamazov suggestion, and would say also War & Peace by the other great Russian, Tolstoi. One of the bests books I've read.

  Byron Crawford's The Mindset of a Champion

  You may have read "The Good Earth" by Pearl S. Buck (if you havn't, I highly recommend it.) You might not have heard of some of her other novels. One such book, "Pavilion of Women", is almost life changing. It is subtle. It has an unmatched understanding and portrayal of human nature. Everyone I know who's read it has been affected by it. I can't recommend "Pavilion of Women" enough - it was a magical experience to read it.
