Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
3.0

I read this book in high school, and I remember it being very formative to my worldview. I thought it was the best book I'd ever read. Going back to it now, as an adult, I can see and appreciate the parts that were flawed alongside the parts that were brilliant. I was less thrilled by the reference to a Mother Culture than I was in the past, and I think it has to do with the fact that there's an underlying typecasting of women as nurturers that happens so often in media.
