I find television to be very educational. Every time someone turns it on, I go into the other room and read a book.

Q: How do you define a masterpiece? ... more>>

A: Something that has had a long-lasting effect on my mindset or even changed the way I think. 

Something that I'm reluctant to re-read because I know it can't be put down once started. 

Something that I think can't be reproduced even by the same author.

*Unordered list, can't compare different genres. 

Western/Translated Novels: 

- Catcher in the Rye

- Remembrance of Earth's past 

- Midnight Library and everything else by same author

- (Maybe) Books of Babel series <<less
