An excellent book dealing with emotion, philosophy, psychology, and meaning in life. My English teacher gave this book to me, and it was recommended to me by a college friend before he passed away, but I am glad I waited until was older and more well read to read it. I can see the existentialist themes throughout the book - definitely recommended to anyone interested in the classics and philosophy.
