This is a question This book changed my life

The Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.

What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?

Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

@Smurf
Fear & Loathing was a great interpretation...

Perhaps made easier for Gilliam as Ralph Steadman's illustrations would have helped form our expectations and, by extension, his direction.

That's not to take anything away from Gilliam, though; trying to convert anything from the words of Hunter S Thompson to film is a task that is surely beyond most.
