I've read Zen & The Art of Motorcyle Maintenance several times over the years, though I'm pretty sure I'm done with that now. My recent re-reader has been Under Milk Wood...I think it might be the first lifetime-stayer. It "sounds" beautiful, even just to read (yet alone listen to in "play for voices" form).
"To begin at the beginning:
It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black, the cobblestreets silent and the hunched, courters'-and-rabbits' wood limping invisible down to the sloeblack, slow, black, crowblack, fishingboat-bobbing sea.
..."
Aye, sends a right shiver, it does.
Cheers,
Marc
