What people on Hacker News said
Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller — Perfect for a single man in his 30s. Very solipsistic and hedonistic, which is a great way to explore that decade. Each of the books in the series is a novel length prose poem. Absolutely beautiful
Henry Miller's "Tropic of Cancer" Live life, follow your dream, and don't let hunger stop you from your work. And pay attention to everything.
