motorcycle diaries by che guevara
i don't necessarily think it is a masterpiece, and i'm aware che is quite the controversial character, but the book struck all the right cords for me. adventure and history are some of my favorite themes, which was an immediate plus, but what had me hooked were the encounters with common folk. can't quite put into words why, frankly.
