It is sometimes hailed as 'The Great American Novel' [personally I think A Confederacy of Dunces takes that title].
It is a story of childhood, and how perspective changes as innocence is lost.
It is also about seeing things from the other person's perspective - 'you can't know a man 'til you have walked around a while in his skin' [I am quoting from memory.]
I think all sellers should familiarise themselves with it before coming on here and posting 'I've been scammed, my buyer has claimed INR, but I have proof of posting, why should I have to refund?'

If someone was trying to explain something to you, and said 'You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink', they are almost certainly trying to illustrate a point, rather than personally critiquing your equine persuasion skills.
