CitR has already been mentioned -- the sense of finding anger and the absurd in alienation struck a deep chord in me. A Farewell to Arms has romance, war, debauchery, and terror. What a mix, eh? Guns, Germs, and Steel presents some complex thoughts with great writing. I love most of John Keegan's work for the same reasons.
Yeah GG&S was a real mind re-arranger. I'd love to read a book as well and fairly written as that about human origins.
