Query: The Best Book I've Read in 45 Years of Reading

I first read "A Prologue to Love" when I was a young girl and itremains the best novel I've ever read. I love Caldwell's rigorous intelligence, crisp avoidance of sentimentality for pure and honest emotion, and the sheer force of her language - she would have made a formidable lawyer or stateswoman. The book is sweeping but in the end a simple parable about how we can be blind to what is truly important and enduring because of fears born of ignorance, abused innocence and deprivation of love. I didn't understand the political commentary until later readings, but when I saw it, it just added another layer of richness to the story.Read this book!
