The Essential Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson (Modern Library Classics)
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Again, I'm counting this as both read and peeked-inside. I've read the major essays and a fair amount of the poetry and smatterings of other work here and there, but this goddamn thing is like 800+ pages!
There's no way I'm going to get through all of it but it is every bit worthwhile when I do dip in.
I agree with Bloom that Ralph is the mind of America, presuming that there really can be such a thing....open it at random and the thing will knock yo out. I turn to it like some do with the Bible...
