The Words by Jean-Paul Sartre. It's one of the most intelligent, interesting autobriography that I have ever read. An anthology of poems with pieces like Ulysses by Tennyson, by W.H. Auden Do not go gentle into that good night, and the poem (don't know the title) that says He was my North, my South, my East and West, my Working week and my Sunday Rest..., almost all the poems by Aragon, but for sure Le Roman Inachevé, some scenes from the theater of Shakespeare, Racine, Molière, the last pages of La Force de l'âge by Simone de Beauvoir, the beginning of Proust, of La Ferme Africaine by Karen Blixen, On the Road by Jack Kerouac, Bonjour Tristesse by Francoise Sagan, The Great Gatsby by Fitzegerald . I am cheating a bit but let's say I would put it all in one book.
