This book is said to be quite controversial but an intriguing read nonetheless. One of the shortest and most challenging books I've read so far.

I read this book in school and I keep thinking that I will read it again but I never do. I remember having a hard time getting through it when I was reading it in school and I was glad that I had my teacher to help me through the symbolizm.
