Can a book change the direction of a culture?

[Brian]

To Kill A Mockingbird is just an example of what I am asking here:

Can a single book bring people together who previously held opposing views?

What is the power of a book to create actual change within a society?

What book has changed the path you have personally taken in your life?

Please tell us about the books that have been life's trail markers for you.

this is luck and light from
