Favorite book.

Hello world.
Today's post is about my favorite book. Even though I'm not a bookworm, I'm not able to name just a single favorite book; I have many books that could make it to my top list. In this list I would include Herman Hesse's "El lobo estepario", Chuck Palahniuk's "Fight Club" and George Orwell's "1984", among many others. If I were to pick only one I would pick "El lobo estepario", because I consider it a masterpiece. This books makes you travel to the inner parts of the human nature alongside with Harry Haller, the author's alter ego. It has an in crescendo narrative where you constantly go deeper and deeper into the human essence and the reality gets blurrier and blurrier. The later part of the book, the "Magical Theater" is able to blow your mind and get you to question yourself. I'm not going to write any further about this book, because of the spoilers I could come across.

As I said before, I haven't read that many books, but I really like Herman Hesse writing style. He has a very refined style of writing, very descriptive and introspective. I Also like Palahniuk's raw style of writing. He has a writing style that can make you sick, but he is very good at telling a story this way. In fact, his story "Guts" made me feel ill, but it a was a really good story! I suggest you read it, it's really short.

Lately I've been reading Haruki Murakami's 1Q84, because my girlfriend gifted it to me as a birthday present. It has about one thousand pages! It's the longest book I've ever read. I'm like 50 pages away from finishing it and I've really enjoyed it. It's different from the western literature, but totally recommended.
