The Iliad of Homer!
It is the most important book in Western history! It shows most sciences, arts, sports, etc.! It presents the History of mankind and set the bases of the Western civilization!
It is a book that contains everything, from the way homes should be built, to how they were dancing 4,ooo years ago, to the Creation of gods and heroes, to medicine and anatomy, to poetry and love, to financial and social systems, to the discovery of alphabets to etymology, to horror, robots, and so on!

I really liked Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. It's fabulous. It's a symphony of 6 intertwining stories about life, truth, and the future. It's about what it is to be a person. The first chapter is a little slow but keep reading and you will be highly rewarded
