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

It's actually a novella (ie a long short story) by JD Salinger - a profound meditation on life, family, sadness and love. It's also really funny in places.

I have read it so many times. It is like a ritual when I am feeling down. At the end I am always glad to be human.
