I am happy I put off reading this book until after graduating college. It is an interesting meditation on attaining meaning in one's life and finding meaning through suffering. Frankl's narrative in three parts detailing the initial shock of entrance, the long years within the camps, and the shock of freedom created a stark look on the psyche of men in the most dire of conditions. I think I will re-read this later on this year.
