If there was one book that I would memorize because of its importance, it would be The Odyssey. The book is just an amazing assortment of similes, metaphors, and figurative language that all comes together to make one of the most well known stories of all time. Saving this book would not only be important for the story itself, but just the method that Homer wrote it. He used metaphors took up entire paragraphs, so that when they were finished you could tell exactly what he meant just because he related so well to everyday things, such as fishing. The descriptions are often very long, but it just adds to the picture you're brought in your mind. While being very descriptive, the book is also very entertaining. The constant danger Odysseus's crew is in will make you want to keep reading, and the situtations they get stuck in will leave you wondering what will happen next. This is one of the books that you will remember for the rest of your life. It's unparalleled story is very captivating, and is one that must be experienced. It's also important to memorize this book because the way it was originally told was all off of memory. Homer and other story-tellers, would have to recite the whole story off memory. If all writings of the future after a book burning disaster could be influenced, this would be the book the influence them with. Interesting, descriptive, and creative, this book is the essence of good literature.
