I actually read several of his books while I was at uni (I think my flatmate introduced me to The Alchemist). I couldn’t get over the cringiness/preachiness after the third or so though, and have never looked back. :face_vomiting:

I’ve read it cover to cover. It’s still in my bookshelf.

What I like:

  • Some of his ideas on physical education in the context of a broader national education system
  • The discussion about age limits in terms of political participation

What I don’t like:

  • Uh … the race thing … and the war thing … and a few other things …
