David Copperfield. (The novel, not the illusionist.) This is not the issue for me today that it was when I first read it, three decades ago, though.
NPR's current series on high school. "I want to tell them that it gets better," said a guy for whom high school was just awful, 25 years ago, in today's story (link not yet available at time of publication). I understand where he's coming from with that, and it really is an important message for the current generation of high schoolers to hear. But it "getting better" depends an awful lot on the sort of mistakes you subsequently make.
