Letters to a Young Contrarian - Christopher Hitchens
The Old Man and the Sea - Hemmingway
Both gave me an appreciation of the writers that led me to read more of their work which ultimately made changes in my life. With Hitchens his work on religion had a profound impact on my world view, with Hemmingway it gave me an appreciation for good writing and story.
