I liked Meditations, but stopped halfway through. It was recommended to me by a professor I respected immensely when I was going through a tough set of addictions. His gesture did more to keep me sane than the book did; I felt a companion in the pain of addiction. The book is brilliant for perspective, however, and, though I'm no stoic, I respect the sentiment.

I read that copy of Siddhartha. Great little book. It's wisdom literature, if I've ever read it.

You'll have to tell me how No Longer Human is.

Camus, Dostoevsky, McCarthy, all well-loved names here. I've never read a full Hemingway novel, worked halfway through a collection of his short stories, but I really feel like I need to read Old Man and the Sea. Can anyone tell me whether or not it's necessary? If not, what is the best full novel to read by the man to "get him"?
