If you could recommend one book for the entire world to read, which book would it be?

The reason I ask is simply because I want to make a good collection of books that will last me for a very long time.

I would never actually force anyone (least of all the entire world) to read any one single book. But you should try Catcher in the Rye if you haven’t already ;P
